The fifth grade Kids Care Club has developed a personal connection by adopting a school in Haiti: Dumarsais estime de Port au Ceil. Through project Operation Water Well, Sope Creek will be able to bring running water to this school. The water crisis in Haiti was worsened by the recent earthquake and Sope Creek students want to help.
Sope Creek Elementary is partnering with H2O for Life (www.h2oforlifeschools.org) to help make this possible. Every penny raised by our students will be matched by Save the Children and 100% of the money we collect will go directly to digging a well at our adopted school.
The Kids Care Club will be collecting donations on March 3, 4, & 5. Parents can make tax-deductible donations by writing a check directly to H2O for Life Schools, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization.

2. A legume is a plant in the family Leguminosae, or the fruit or seed of such
a plant.
Legumes are grown agriculturally, primarily for their food grain seed (example
beans and lentils, or generally pulse), for livestock forage and silage, and as
soil-enhancing green manure.
Legumes are notable in that most of them have symbiotic nitrogen-fixing
bacteria in structures called root nodules.
Well-known legumes include alfalfa, clover, peas, beans, lentils, lupins,
mesquite, carob, soybeans, peanuts and tamarind.
About legumes
3. History
- Lentils and peas are the oldest legumes that are
grown in the Near East has about nine thousand
years ago. In Central Europe began to spread in
the 6 to 5 millennium BC., at the same time as
corn.
- Beans are native to South America. They
brought it to Europe, the Spaniards in the
16th century and in the seventeenth century in Europe were already
widely disseminated and used.
- Chickpeas, Cicero is mentioned in the manuscript cookbook in 1645 in
only one meal - the soup.
4. Contents of legumes
Legumes are high in protein content .
Legumes usually contain carbohydrates, which, although
indigestible by the human digestive tract are digested by bacteria
located along the large intestine, causing bloating .
Further, they contain significant amounts of vitamins Group B. They
lack vitamins A and C.
Up to soybeans and peanuts are all low in fat .
5. Health benefits
As an excellent source of complex carbohydrates,
protein and fiber, legumes are a highly satiating food.
This means that for a relatively low amount of calories
legumes make you feel fuller longer and, therefore,
help prevent the hunger that can lead to unhealthy
snacking and unwanted pounds.
Legumes are sometimes called “poor people’s meat”
because they’re an inexpensive source of quality plant
protein. They truly are an ideal meat substitute,
however, because the vitamin and mineral profiles of
legumes and meat are comparable.
6. Recommendations
Why should you eat legumes?
Here are just a few reasons:
Excellent source of protein
Good source fiber (approximately 15 g/cup)
Most varieties provide half our folate requirements
A good source of phosphorus, potassium, iron, zinc, calcium, and
selenium

Rich in antioxidants
Low Glycemic Index
7. Incorporation into diet
The easiest way to increase your intake is by tossing a handful in soups
or salads. Make your own veggie burgers by mixing beans, vegetables,
breadcrumbs and egg whites to bind them together. Prepare a one-dish
meal by combining legumes, brown rice, mushrooms, sweet peppers,
tomatoes and seasonings, such as cumin, paprika or hot sauce. Consider
making a breakfast smoothie with bananas, berries, yogurt and white
beans. Try a dessert smoothie using cocoa powder, bananas, black
beans and fat-free chocolate milk. Gradually add them to your diet if you
experience excess gas from eating beans and other legumes. This gives
your digestive tract time to adjust to the extra fiber and helps prevent
unwanted side effects.
8. Other interesting facts
- Beans are the only cultivated plants
that actually enrich, rather than
deplete, the soil during the growing
process.
- In ancient Rome, so esteemed were
legumes that the four leading families
took their names from them: Lentullus
(lentil), Piso (pea), Cicero (chickpea),
and Fabius (fava).
