Science- Exploring Food Groups

In Year 3, the children had an exciting lesson all about food groups and their importance for the body. The lesson commenced with a collaborative sorting activity, during which the children organised various foods into categories such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, dairy, and fruits and vegetables. They relished the opportunity to identify the classifications of items like bread, chicken, apples, and cheese, eagerly sharing their insights with classmates.

 

A particularly engaging aspect was the tasting session, where children sampled crunchy carrots, soft bread, and creamy hummus. Many expressed enthusiasm for trying new flavours and shared their experiences with peers. By the lesson's conclusion, the children gained a clearer understanding of how a balanced diet contributes to health and energy.
