Health education and the nutrition class, a report of the Bureau of educational experiments; descriptive and educational sections . Chakt 5Gain in Weight op Sections in Fiest Grade Nutrition Class. 136 HEALTH EDUCATION The curve of growtli also shows a more rapid riseand a total gain of lbs, or more than the expectedgain. The averages of the Control Group for the samemonths are much like those of Section 1. Average Weight in Pounds October February June Total Gain Control Group Section 1 These results suggest that a percentage of 8 or9% underweight as determined by present standardsdoes not materially affect the normal growth of achild in weight; a percentage underweight of 10 ormore involves less absolute gain and less than theexpected normal gain.* Further illustration of this point can be found inChart 6. Individual curves of growth in weight byweekly weighings have been plotted for the fivechildren in the Nutrition Group who were the leastunderweight and for the five most in the first group were all 8%, the secondranged from 15-20% underweight.
