Nutrition Label Activity (8 editable pgs.) Biomolecules & Food

The Nutrition Label Activity teaches students how to read food nutrition labels while relating foods to biomolecules and calculating the calories of food consumed by serving size.

The first page of the packet explains the nutrition label information and the biomolecules which correspond to the nutrition information. There is also a paragraph included about the roles of sodium, vitamins, and minerals.

The following six pages are filled with popular foods students are familiar with. Each bag has general questions and calculation questions that the students need to perform simple math equations to answer. The math is simple, with most problems being solved through multiplication.

The final page is filled with reflection questions and requires the students to make connections between the nutrition labels and biomolecules.

You can give the entire packet or use a few pages at a time. Each page is able to stand on its own. There is a color and black & white copy. An editable Nutrition Label Activity file and teacher key are also included.
