Field trips play an important role in learning. They link the classroom experience with the outside world. A supermarket is a wonderful place for children to be made aware of and learn about different kinds of foods and other things available there. Students of Pre-nursery and Nursery visited a super market to learn about shopping, use of money and food.
They were shown different sections of the supermarket, fresh fruits & vegetable section, grain section, meat/dairy/frozen food section, bakery, and canned goods, toys, etc.
Teachers explained to them how things are bought, billed and paid for. This taught them the feeling of responsibility.
Indeed, it was a fun-filled learning experience for each child. We hope this learning experience will help our students to make the right choice when it comes to healthy eating.
Students exhibited high level of enthusiasm and at the same time followed the essential agreements, like walking in a line, listening to their teacher and even greeted people with their smiles.
This educational, interactive experience is sure to leave a lasting impression with our young Beaconites.
