To solve this problem, we need to sort the food items into two groups:
Healthy and
Unhealthy.
Step 1: Identify the Healthy Foods
Healthy foods are usually natural foods like fruits and vegetables. They give your body good energy and vitamins.
*
Apple: This is a fruit. It is healthy.
*
Broccoli: This is a vegetable. It is healthy.
*
Banana: This is a fruit. It is healthy.
Step 2: Identify the Unhealthy Foods
Unhealthy foods are often processed, have lots of sugar, or are fried. We should eat these only sometimes.
*
Hamburger: This is fast food with a bun and meat patty. It is considered unhealthy for this activity.
*
Candy: This is pure sugar. It is unhealthy.
*
Hot Dog: This is a processed meat sausage in a bun. It is unhealthy.
*
Fried Chicken Drumstick: This is meat that has been fried in oil. It is unhealthy.
Step 3: Apply the Colors
The instructions say:
* Color healthy foods with
green.
* Color unhealthy foods with
red.
Final Answer:
*
Color Green (Healthy): Apple, Broccoli, Banana
*
Color Red (Unhealthy): Hamburger, Candy, Hot Dog, Fried Chicken Drumstick
