Elementary Health Lesson Plans

What should I do about this lesson plan I have to make?

I have to make a lesson plan for elementary children involving food for my Children’s Health and Nutrition class. This lesson has to involve a food beginning with either an A or an I because those are my initials. When I first heard I had to do a lesson plan I automatically thought of a lesson I had come up with for a another class last year that I just drew out and never actually made. The lesson that I had chosen was to do fractions because at the time I was shadowing a 3rd class and that was what they were learning so I decided to choose this topic. I am going to have a fridge where the children take out apple pies that are cut into fractions and place the pie above the correct fraction. The problem is someone in my class already did a lesson on fractions and had an apple pie as one of the fractions. I don’t want it to look like I copied her and don’t want points taken off cause the teacher does not think it is orginal. Should I stick with the lesson I have or make a new one?

Make a new one.

Use ICE and make a lesson about water and its properties:
It makes river valleys (erosion)
It floods people’s homes in storm time
It washes our dishes, hands bodies
It nourishes us (better that coke and pepsi)
It is home for fish

Need I go on??
