Frequently asked questions

Does this cover the Grade 3 EVS food chapter?

Yes - food groups, balanced meals, food sources, food spoilage and safe drinking water are the standard Grade 3 topics in this chapter.

My child listed junk food as energy-giving. Is that wrong?

Not entirely, and it is worth discussing: sugary food does give quick energy but lacks the other nutrients, which is exactly why balanced meals are the point of the chapter.

Which foods count as protective foods?

Fruits and vegetables, because their vitamins and minerals help the body resist illness. Grains are energy-giving; milk, eggs, pulses and meat are body-building.
