In third grade we've made a food pyramid to learn about having a healthy diet. We've divided a pyramid into four groups according to nurtrients. On the inside of each category, we've written the frequency which we need to eat these different groups of nutrients. For example, we need to eat proteins several times a week (3-4 times a week) or vitamins and minerals everday (fruits and vegetables). Inside the pyramid we have drawn examples of the types of food we can eat in each in group. For carbohydrates for instance, we have drawn pasta, bread and rice and for proteins we have drawn chicken, eggs, cheese and milk. This was a very fun activity and the children have really enjoyed making it!
