Yes, I have gone to a nearby shop with my family members many times.
I went with my mother to the grocery shop to buy vegetables, milk, and bread. I liked seeing the colourful packets of biscuits and chocolates on the shelves.
I also went with my father to the stationery shop to buy notebooks, pencils, and erasers. I enjoyed looking at the different coloured pens and beautiful notebooks.
Sometimes I help carry small bags when we shop.
Shopping with family is fun because I learn about different things and how to buy them.
Explanation
This project work connects to the chapter where Anju and Farida went to the market and bought various items (bag, water bottle, groundnuts, juice). Students share their own shopping experiences, developing speaking skills and connecting the story to real life. The note to the teacher encourages children to share experiences in English, using mother tongue if needed initially.
