I have used this activity with my 5th graders for years, and they are always engaged and shocked to find that food rationing is a lot harder than they thought it would be. During this food rationing activity, students will use a certain number of ration points to create a breakfast, lunch, and dinner menu. The activity also includes reflection questions.
