You should request these table tables at least once a week. Ask your students to limit their food intake to only one or two table portions per day. If possible, request the classroom table at lunch time but instruct your child not to eat there. [substeps] Assist and encourage kids to have small plates out and bowls filled with food at all times. Make sure that you request necessary tables on your own list. [substeps] If you are eating at the school cafeteria, ask to have a different table used so there are no students in the cafeteria who can't move out. You may be able to stop that from happening by requesting the school designate allergy-free tables for children with allergies. [substeps] Talk to the principal about this request.
