Healthy Eating Game 2

You just played a game about the food pyramid and the different categories the foods go into. Leave a comment with your name answering these questions!

1. Based on what you have learned about the food pyramid and eating healthy, predict what would happen if you ONLY ate foods that were not shown in any of the food groups on that game. The only food group not shown was sugars.

2. Explain why it is important to eat a diet with foods from all the different food groups. Please write a full paragraph.

Healthy Eating Game 1

You have finished deciding a healthy meal to eat at school! Now I want you to answer a couple questions about that game.

1. Write down a list of what food's you choose to eat for lunch. Compare them with the foods you didn't choose to eat. Tell me why you choose the foods you did and why you didn't choose the others. You must write a better explanation than "Because its good for you!"

2. In this blog I want you to pretend you are a concerned student about the food at your school. Write a letter to the principle explaining why your school needs healthier choices.
