📖 Our Food Class 1 Learning Guide
Read about food sources meals and eating habits
An Our Food worksheet for Class 1 introduces the foods children see at home, at school and in local markets. Begin with familiar dishes and ingredients. Ask children to name a food, describe where it comes from and notice how different ingredients can be combined in a meal.
We need food for energy, growth and the everyday work of our bodies. Different foods provide different combinations of nutrients. Avoid teaching that a food has only one job or that one special food can provide everything a child needs. Variety across meals and through the day is useful.
Food from plants includes grains such as rice and wheat, pulses such as lentils and chickpeas, fruits and vegetables. Food from animals includes eggs and milk from animals such as cows and buffaloes. Ordinary dairy curd is made from milk. Some dishes contain ingredients from both sources, so look at the recipe before deciding.
Simple food groups help children organise examples. Grains, pulses, fruits, vegetables and dairy foods are useful classroom categories. These groups are learning tools rather than rigid boxes for every dish. A mixed vegetable-and-lentil dish contains ingredients from more than one group.
Breakfast is commonly a morning meal, lunch a midday meal and dinner an evening meal. Families have different schedules, names and food traditions. There is no single dish that every family must eat for breakfast or lunch. Use examples that reflect children’s homes without judging one family’s food against another’s.
A varied meal can combine a grain or another staple, a pulse or another suitable protein source, and vegetables or fruit. The meal-building game explores this variety; it does not prescribe portions or a complete diet. Families should follow their own dietary requirements and any allergy guidance. Children should ask an adult before tasting an unfamiliar food or sharing food.
Food hygiene begins with washing hands with soap and safe water before eating. Use clean utensils and keep food protected from contamination. An adult should manage cooking, refrigeration and decisions about food that may be spoiled. A child should never taste doubtful food to test whether it is safe.
To reduce food waste, begin with an amount you expect to eat and ask for more if still hungry. Tell an adult about leftovers so they can decide whether safe storage is possible. Avoid pressuring children to ignore fullness or eat food that may be unsafe. Use the existing worksheet download option on this page for paper practice alongside the online quiz and games.
