Activity Overview
After learning about the different food groups, students can create posters that highlight the different parts of the traditional food pyramid. By creating a poster that they can hang up in class, students can demonstrate their understanding of the different food groups as well as create a great decorative and informative visual reminder for themselves and their peers.
