Introduction: As we start to learn about how to keep our bodies healthy we need to know what kinds of food are good for us. The website you will be visiting has a fun and interactive way to learn about what foods are good to eat that keep our bodies healthy and functioning properly.

Information: In order to complete the activity click here Kidnetic.com and you will be taken to the website http://kidnetic.com. Once at the site you need to click on InnerG at the top of the page to go where you need to be.

Activity: When you get to the InnerG you need to take the body parts by clicking and dragging them back to where they belong on InnerG. When you place the body part in the right place a information box is located on the right side of the screen that gives you information on the types of food to eat for that body part.

Read the questions below and answer the questions as you complete the activity on InnerG on a sheet of paper to be handed in.

1. What types of food would you need to eat to keep your heart healthy?

2. Why do you need to eat carbohydrates that are in bread and pasta for your liver?

3. Why do you need to drink milk for your bones and how do you keep your bones strong?

4. Keep a one day journal of what you eat and see if you are eating what you should be eating. This will be turned in so be honest about what you eat.
