__Introduction __ OH NO! The people in Swallow Falls are stuck eating sardines! Just when they thought there was no hope, Flint Lockwood invented a machine that can make ANY KIND OF FOOD you could think of! But the people of Swallow Falls dont know what kind of food they should be eating. It's up to you to help them pick healthy foods for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

__Task __ Your job is to help the people of Swallow Falls pick foods that will create a balanced meal for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Using the links below, find out how many servings from each food group are needed. Once you figure out which foods the people of Swallow Falls are going to need to eat for the day, you can print, draw, or cut out pictures for each meal. <span style="color: #800080; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Then you will make a poster of the weather forecast for the entire day. <span style="color: #800080; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Good Luck!
