Planning Healthy Meals

4th Grade•30 minutes

Learning Objective

I can plan a healthy meal using the five food groups.

The food pyramid is a tool that guides us on the healthy food intake that our body requires daily.

The smallest part of the food pyramid consists of sweets and fats, which should be eaten in small quantities.

The largest section of the food pyramid includes grains, lentils, bread, and rice, which provide energy for the body.

This lesson includes 3 practice questions to reinforce learning.
