Label brown paper bags by food groups, with pictures. Divide the class into two teams. During outdoor time, set up an area outside. On one end, place bags labeled with the food groups and on the other end place the food items. You may have plastic food, empty food boxes or empty cans. One child selects a food item. He/she runs down and puts it in the appropriate bag while his/her teammates cheer. The child must run back and tag a teammate. Then it is that child's turn. At the end of the game, dump out the contents of the bags and see how well the class did at sorting foods into groups.
