ChooseMyPlate

The ChooseMyPlate Placemat is a simple educational tool that schools and families can use to help them practice appropriate food group portion sizes.  The colorful paper placemat is 14½ by 10 inches and features the MyPlate icon.

Place a clear glass plate over the  7 ¾- inch plate on the placemat so students and adults can practice appropriate food group amounts.

 Activity Ideas:

·         Students can draw foods on or around the food groups on the placemat.

·         Teacher’s can have students practice measuring and placing portions on the placemat or on a clear glass plate placed over the plate.

·         Students can match food models with the food groups on the placemat. 

 The ChooseMyPlate icon is a product of the USDA.  Supporting materials can be found at www.choosemyplate.gov.
