Unhealthy Foods

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a nutritional activity that aims to teach children the difference between healthy and unhealthy foods. It features illustrations of various food items, and the instructions ask students to cross out the foods they believe are unhealthy and to color in those they consider healthy. The food items depicted range from fruits and vegetables to sweet treats and fast food. Additionally, the worksheet includes a “How Did You Do?” section at the bottom where students can express their feelings about their choices by coloring one of three faces showing different emotions.

The worksheet’s goal is to enhance students’ ability to discern between nutritious and less nutritious food options, promoting awareness of healthy eating habits. It encourages critical thinking as students must evaluate each food item based on their understanding of what constitutes a healthy diet. This task also aids in reinforcing the concept of food groups and the role they play in a balanced diet. The self-assessment section at the end provides an opportunity for students to reflect on their knowledge and intuition regarding food choices.
