A Food Pyramid activity for students to cut out and assemble in their books.
Cut out each of the food pyramid sections and labels, then glue them together in the correct order to form a complete food pyramid.
You could also print the page on a larger piece of paper, then cut and laminate the pieces to use many times.

This is a great resource. I've recently discovered that the pyramid has been replaced by a plate broken into five groups. Is there any way of having this updated? Thanks a bunch.

Thanks for doing this. Is it possible to have the pyramid cut up like it is but have all the piece of food separate too?
