     Which tool to use when teaching nutrition in the classroom?                                                                          
     To ensure consistent messages, Queensland’s Department of Education recommends using the latest 
     Australian Guide to Healthy Eating “Plate” model shown below for nutrition education in the classroom. 
     This model is consistent with the key messages of Nutrition Australia’s Healthy Eating Pyramid.  
     Both models provide very similar information – simply presented in a different format. The plate model 
     represents the proportion of foods from each of the 5 food groups we should be eating across the day. 
     The pyramid model highlights the foods that we should eat in small amounts, through to what we should 
     eat the most of.  This is proportionally represented as those we should eat least, eat moderately and eat 
     most.  Both guides are based on the 2013 Australian Dietary Guidelines.  
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
     How can this information be used in the classroom? 
     Students can look at both models and compare and contrast the two models to generate nutrition 
     discussions. Key questions may include:  
            
             How are the models similar?  
            
             How do the models differ? 
            
             Do you feel one is better than the other? Why is this so?

     Both the Healthy Eating Pyramid and Australian Guide to Healthy Eating models provide a pictorial 
     representation of the proportions we should eat across a day, but they don’t provide specific amounts 
     for each food group for individuals. 
     The following serve size guide from the Australian Dietary Guidelines is an indication of approximately 
     how much children and teenagers should be eating each day. For serve size examples, see the Healthy 
     Eating for Children and Adolescents (http://www.eatforhealth.gov.au/guidelines).
