In the first paragraph the author relates a story that most people know about in order to make herself more relatable. Then she compliments the efforts of one school in providing healthy food to it's children and the positive effects created, further boosting her credibility. Then she addresses the problem that children are still rather ignorant about what they're eating. Then she addresses her plan to bring food education into schools, outline the benefits. She then gives personal student testimonies that further her cause. Then ends with a quote from Thomas Jefferson.
1. By becoming cultivators of the earth the children are learning one with the country, and intertwined with it's liberties and principles.
2. Waters really just gives examples of her personal experience to relate good food with better school performance. While a little bit more of factual evidence would maybe help a little I think she does well not to bog down her essay with statistics.
3.
