What this chapter teaches.
As the closing chapter, this brings together nearly every skill from the year: reading and comparing 3-digit numbers, adding and subtracting money while shopping at fair stalls, comparing capacity/weight of goods on sale, and collecting/reading simple data about visitor choices (like a tally of favourite stalls) — all in one connected, fair-themed setting.

Activity 1 — Shopping at the Fair.
Children solve word problems involving buying handicrafts, food, or souvenirs at different stalls, adding costs and working out change, using the money and arithmetic skills from earlier chapters.

Activity 2 — Comparing Goods.
Children compare the capacity or weight of different goods on sale (like pots of different sizes, or bags of dry fruits), applying the litre/kilogram concepts from Filling and Lifting.

Activity 3 — Fair Data.
Children collect and read simple data about the fair, such as a tally of the most-visited stalls or favourite fair foods, and answer questions about which was most or least popular.

Activity 4 — Planning a Visit.
An open-ended activity where children plan a fair visit within a given budget, deciding what to buy and checking their total stays within the amount available — a genuine, practical application of the year’s arithmetic.

Why This Chapter Matters

As the year’s final chapter, The Surajkund Fair is designed to show children that all the separate skills learned across the book — numbers, money, measurement, and data — work together to solve real, everyday problems, not just as isolated topics.
