Food Pyramid...

Last week we studied the Food Pyramid. We had lots of fun with it and it was a favorite 'science' topic by far.

We studied a different group each day. They cut out pictures from magazines for our big pyramid (at bottom)...each drew their own little one...and Luke and Kendall had to write a few things about each group (like why it was good/bad, how many servings per day, etc.).







Now it's time for some application! :)

Books we used:
Showdown at the Food Pyramid by Rex Barron (good one!)
My Food Pyramid: Eat Right. Exercise. Have Fun. by DK Publishing
The Food Pyramid by Joan Kalbacken
Blastoff Readers, including:
Oils,
Fruits,
Veges,
Grains,
Milk, Yogurt, and Cheese,
Meat and Beans,
and Bon Appetit CD by Cathy Fink and Marcy Marxer (we had lots of fun singing and dancing to this one!)
