Start a discussion with your class about nutritious eating habits and their favorite healthy foods! This project is inspired by the <a target="_blank" href="http://www.choosemyplate.gov/">USDA’s Choose My Plate</a> model, which replaced the previous food pyramid model. Encourage students to share their own experiences and beliefs with the group. Some students may bring a variety of dietary restrictions and differing food habits to the table, which is sure to spark an interesting conversation about healthy eating!</p><div class="material-resource">
