SUN’S LIGHT REACHES

THE EARTH
for Science Grade Two

FOREWORD
 THE SUN’S LIGHT REACHES THE EARTH

What will happen if the sunlight did not reach our planet.

There will be darkness everywhere, no colors, no beautiful

nature, no living trees, animals and people looking into the sky,

a shining sun gives light to our surroundings. This also helps the

people, animals and plants to maintain healthy bodies, and

improve the way of living. In this Self Learning Kit, we will

determine some evidences that the sun’s light reaches the Earth.

Some of the good and beneficial effects are seen in the different

activities. This Self Learning Kit is design for Grade 2 Science

Class to help the learners achieve the defined objectives with the

help of various activities.
