Made to Order
To start download the worksheet.

This activity requires some prep work. You will need magazines that contain pictures of various foods. Once you have collected enough magazines so that the entire class can cut out a meal, you are ready for this lesson. Distribute the magazines and instruct children to cut out food to make a meal of their choice. Have students look at the pyramid and see if the meal they created is a good choice. Offer helpful information such as: grilled or baked chicken is a better choice than fried chicken.

Extension Lesson:
Divide students into small groups and have them act out how they would order their meal at a restaurant. Remind them to demonstrate good manners by saying "please" and "thank you."
