Maria, 7 years old, is new to the community and recently enrolled in your after-school program. She and her parents speak Portuguese and little English. The other children eagerly attempt to teach her English words by pointing and repeating the names of food and objects. Although Maris seems to enjoy their attention and is responding to the efforts, you are concerned that she still eats very little during snack time.

Why should you be concerned that Maria isn't eating?
What steps can you take to learn more about her and her family's food preferences?

Answer:

First question :as a caring classmate, i should be concerned because Maria's health may be affected due to her eating habits and this will cause her to have lack of energy because she is not taking enough carbohydrates and other nutritions. In the long term, she will face health issues such as always feeling tired and sleepy.

Second question:Because she is from Portugal and the food preferenced may be a bit different from the food she is having here, so maybe i can tried to talk to her and learn more about her eating preferences, i can also learn to make a few dishes that she will enjoy which may helps her to eat more and enjoy eating the food here
