Overview

This free video resource from PBS LearningMedia teaches students about healthy food choices. This stop motion animation shows what a healthy meal should look like based on the USDA My Plate model. Narrated by a young child who wants to fill her plate with dinner rolls and an adult who explains why that is not a balanced meal, A Healthy Plate provides an easy-to-follow visual that breaks down portion sizes for grains, fruits, vegetables, protein, and dairy.

This alignment results from the ALEX Health/PE COS Resource Alignment Summit.
