Before you play
Game teaching guide
What children will practise
Use the Thai food guide flag: which groups to eat most and least, the recommended daily sugar limit, using the sweet-fat-salt label to compare products, and building a balanced one-plate meal.
What's in the worksheet
6 multiple-choice questions, 3 options each - The food guide flag shows daily proportions of each group - Rice and starches should be eaten most - Oil, sugar and salt should be eaten least - No more than 6 teaspoons of sugar a day (distractor: at least 6) - The sweet-fat-salt label helps pick healthier products; a balanced one-plate meal has rice, protein and vegetables
How to use it in class
Use in the Grade 6 nutrition unit; about 6 minutes. - Keep a picture of the food guide flag beside the game and have children point to the tiers in questions 2 and 3 - For question 4, spoon 6 teaspoons of sugar into a glass and compare with the sugar in a can of fizzy drink - For question 6, analyse a one-plate canteen dish such as basil rice and ask what it lacks - Play it linked to the class to record results in the mark book.
Common sticking points
- Question 4: 'at least 6 teaspoons' uses the same number as the answer, differing only in at least versus no more than, so children who just remember 6 slip - Question 2: children who think protein matters most pick meat; point out the flag puts rice and starches at the base - Question 3: 'very sweet fruit' looks like something to limit, so children may choose it because of the word sweet - Question 1: 'the energy in each dish' shows confusion between the food guide flag and the nutrition label
