L.B. Koopman, CFSAN, FDA, Washington DC 20204

During the two two-week long sessions at International Summer Language School, from June 21st to July 4th, 2000, sixteen fifth- and sixth-graders and from July 6th to 19th, 2000, eighteen fifth- and sixth-graders participated in a Food Safety Program at "Borovoe" in Novosibirsk, Russia. This summer school has been operational since 1995. The program is organized by Linguistic Gymnasia #164 and the Department of Education of the city of Zelenogorsk. Students were from the Linguistic Gymnasia and other schools of Zelenogorsk in Russia. Many materials were used to increase their knowledge. At the end of each session, each group gave their own play/presentation along with a Food Safety song. Their play/presentation demonstrated what they had learned from their two-week Food Safety program. Each student in these two groups was awarded a Food Safety certificate along with a Fight Bac! Seal on it for their participation in this program.
