Fruits can be an enjoyable part of your child’s diet. Fruits contain essential nutrients that are important for a child’s health, growth and development. Thus, through this unit, your child will get to learn about a variety of fruits and different food items that are essential for their growth.

Effective usage of Role plays, hands on activities, audio visual learning and technology will be the methodology used.

A hard copy of the Rhymes for the month will be given to your child in class.

At Home You Can:

Explore books related to the theme. By reading story books and making your home a print rich space, you will improve your child’s ability to master new learning.

Do make your child share his/her reflections of the stories read. This will develop thinking, reasoning as well as aid in confidence building. Please encourage him/her for every effort made- he/she will do better in a motivating and positive environment.

To enhance your child’s learning experience, you could take the child to the market place and grocery stores. The best way to inculcate a healthy eating habit is to enjoy fruits and vegetables as a daily part of your family diet.
