Objective: SWBAT demonstrate the ability to access valid health information, products, and services to enhance health, and practice health-enhancing behaviors.
Criteria for Success (CFS): Students will be successful in today’s lesson if they can... ❏ Accurately identify the parts and portion sizes of the MyPlate. ❏ Sort various foods into food groups. ❏ Set a personal nutrition goal to improve dietary choices. Do Now: During yesterday’s lesson, we learned about the importance of following the dietary guidelines for good health.
Direct: ● In 2011, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) changed the food guide pyramid to do a better job of telling Americans how to eat healthy. Today, we are going to be exploring the USDA MyPlate. ● MyPlate illustrates the five food groups that are the building blocks for a healthy diet: grains, dairy, protein, fruits, and vegetables. It also graphically represents the recommended portions or amounts of each food group that should be consumed. ● Oils are NOT a food group, and are not included in MyPlate. However, oils DO provide essential nutrients and can be a part of a healthy diet when consumed in moderation. Collaborative: ● In pairs, students will access information regarding the MyPlate illustration at: https://www.choosemyplate.gov/ ● MyPlate Guided Notes in Google Classroom Independent: ● Set a nutritional goal for the remainder of class.
