Summarizing (5 minutes) After reading the story ask the students: Q: What things did Tiblo and Tanski do on their adventure? A: Climbed on the rocks, slept in a wolf’s den, dreamed of their grandmother, snacked on some berries, found their way back home. (Show the book as a cue.) Q: Tiblo and Tanski ate berry cakes called pemmican or wasna. They were made from fruit, tallow (fat), and sometimes dried meat. What do you eat that is like the berry cakes that Tiblo and Tanski had in their village? A: Dried fruit like raisins/cranberries/apples/bananas, fruit roll-ups, granola bar with fruit filling, muffin with fruit, trail mix with fruit, jerky sticks. Q: Do you think Tiblo and Tanski got tired from their walk? What do you eat for energy when you hike or play a lot? A: Answers will vary. Point out that good snacks give you long lasting energy. Fruit and whole grains are a good choice.  Page 3 © 2020, South Dakota Board of Regents Dream Wolf Nutrition A C T I V I T Y iGrow readers 1 Fruit Bingo Directions: Ask children if they eat fruit each day like the children in the story do.

If possible obtain a sample of a Tanka Bar or wasna (pemmican) made from a traditional Lakota recipe for children to taste. • Ask: “What makes a snack a good one to travel with?” (small, firm, won’t melt, tasty, provides energy). Hold up the three snack cards in turn and ask, “Which is the better snack?” (high fiber granola bar versus candy bar, trail mix versus skittles, bran and fruit muffin versus a brownie). • Discuss the value of fruit and whole grain together in a snack to provide both quick and long lasting energy. • “Let’s make a good snack for traveling. It is called trail mix. It contains dried fruit for sweet taste, chewy texture, and quick energy. It contains whole grain cereal for long lasting energy and a fun crunch. It sometimes contains nuts for long lasting energy and crunch.” • Give children a small plastic sealable bag. Provide bowls with a variety of dried fruit, whole grain cereals (Cheerios, wheat chex, graham squares), mini-pretzels and nuts (check for food allergies among the children) and scoops. Have the children create their own trail mix . 20 minutes Equipment: • Snack choice cards • Trail mix recipe handout • Trail mix ingredients: dried fruit, whole grain cereals, pretzels, nuts • Bowls and scoops • Sealable plastic bags • Tanka Bar—order from http://www.tankabars. com/ Option: If you have access to ingredients for wasna, have children prepare or sample this snack.  Page 14 © 2020, South Dakota Board of Regents Dream Wolf  Page 15 © 2020, South Dakota Board of Regents Dream Wolf
