Meal planning is making a plan of meals with adequate nutrition for every member of the family within the available resources. It is important for meeting the nutritional requirements of the family members, so it helps us to decide what to eat each day and in each meal. Children learn about grouping the foods into different groups according to their nutrient content in this subject. Inclusion of these food groups in our daily meals is important to provide an adequate diet. This knowledge is essential to make sure that you are eating the right food in the right quantities. Our little chefs of Presidium Grade 4 learned and laid their hands on making Cucumber boats and Mango Mojito, and also learned about their nutritional value.

"Gratitude is an affirmation of goodness." An attitude of gratitude means that you operate from a place of abundance instead of a place of scarcity and fear. Hence, our tiny tots were guided by their teachers to learn the practice of being grateful for everything that they have in their lives. An expression of gratitude acknowledges the importance of people, things, events, and the difference they make to us. We express our gratitude to convey our warm and friendly feelings. Students were also told if somebody is helpful and kind to us in thought or action, we need to express gratitude or return our thankful feelings. When good things happen in our lives or when we are with the ones we love, and when we are grateful and express our gratitude, the feeling of love and tenderness grows.

Science is the process that takes us from confusion to understanding in a manner that's precise, predictive, and reliable. Our young Presidians are the lucky ones who experienced it by doing it. Enrichment promotes critical thinking and problem-solving skills, improves student's ability to concentrate, and makes learning more meaningful, valuable, and rewarding. These activities are fun, which helps students to become more engaged in their learning and retain more information. Students created a model of Lungs using the bare necessities at home like straw, polybags, chart paper, and tape.
