My Project

As a class, we are learning what types of food are best for our bodies. In this project, I have included different types of foods so that the students can taste new things and learn why these things are good for their bodies.

Students learn what kind of food helps them learn!

They also learn what types of food are not the best at providing nutrients for our bodies and should be eaten in moderation.

Help me teach the students about the different foods around us to help them become more food wise!
