I use a food from each food group by using: Vegetable:(spinach)Fruit (Frozen strawberries)Protein (Nut butter or protein powder)Grains (Oats) Talk about each food group I structure my lessons this way: Talk about the benefits of each food groupShow them examples of foods from each food group (i.e., fruit can be dried, fresh, frozen, canned, etc) Grains can include homemade pancakes dipped in yogurt.Then talk about how they can build a balanced meal. Bring your lessons to life by teaching with a real plate In teaching elementary kids, I like to talk about each food group and how we can get a variety of nutrients by getting a variety of colors. We play a game where I roll a large colorful, soft dice, and depending on the color they roll I say: Can you think of a fruit or veggie that's green?Can you think of a red fruit or veggie? etc. MyPlate and Healthy eating Maintaining a healthy weightImproving immunityKeeping your diet low in caloriesReducing disease riskGetting adequate fiber each day US Seller Certifications Certified Woman Owned Business SAM.Gov certified small business owner 889 Certification available Works with you for all your needs Health Beet LLC Small US Business owner Hi!
