Class 2 students recently explored an engaging and meaningful unit on food and nutrition, where learning went far beyond the classroom. Through interactive discussions and hands-on activities, students discovered how different types of food help our bodies grow, stay active, and remain healthy.
The children learned about various food groups and understood how each one supports us in different ways—giving us energy, helping us grow stronger, and keeping us protected from illness. These lessons encouraged students to reflect on their own eating habits and make healthier choices in their daily lives.
Alongside nutrition, students also explored the importance of plants and their vital role in our lives. They discussed how plants provide us with food, oxygen, and a healthier environment, helping them develop respect and responsibility towards nature.
To make learning more meaningful, students participated in activities that connected classroom concepts with everyday responsibilities at home and school—such as choosing healthy snacks, avoiding food wastage, and caring for plants. These experiences helped reinforce the idea that small actions can make a big difference.
This unit not only strengthened students’ understanding of food and the environment but also nurtured a sense of responsibility, awareness, and care—laying the foundation for healthy habits and thoughtful living. 🌱🥗
