Protein Food Cards

Grades 9–12 (Kit)

What makes a protein complete? These classroom-ready cards help students compare complete and incomplete protein sources while building real-world nutrition literacy. Each double-sided card features a food item with key facts to spark discussion about amino acids, dietary needs, and how animal- and plant-based proteins stack up.

Designed for secondary science, health, or FCS courses, the set supports inquiry, small-group discussion, and quick formative checks as students analyze labels, categorize foods, and design balanced meals.
