  • Breads and cereals are important for nutrition.
  • Fruit and vegetables are important for nutrition.
  • Dairy and protein are needed for nutrition.
  • Bodies need small amounts of fats and sugar to stay healthy.
  • Food is sold at shops and markets.
  • Food is sorted into categories in the supermarkets.
  • Recipes can be followed to make lots of different meals.

Activities:

Grown-ups: Every day, revisit the previous sounds that they have learnt.
