Today we learned about knife skills and how to cut food properly. We all had an opportunity to have a go at cutting different fruits. We had a diverse range of fruits and tasted each one. There was:
- papaya
- avocado
- black figs
- watermelon
- passion fruit
- supersweet plums
- mango
- blueberries
- pomegranate
- lambrusca grapes
- blackberries and cherries
We all tried everything, somethings we liked and others we didn’t like so much but at least we tried them! That’s the main thing!
We also discussed what a healthy diet is and why it is important!
We completed a worksheet at the end where we had to tick all the fruits we tried (everyone tried them all so they were all ticked) and then we had to place a tick in either the ‘I liked it’ or ‘I didn’t like it’ column. Some of put ticks between the two as we kind thought it was ok.There was a forth column asking us what it tasted like so we tried to answer all of these but some of them was hard as they didn’t really tast of much. At the bottom we showed our understanding by answering the question ‘What is a healthy diet?’ and the older children had a second question of ‘Why is it important to have a heatlhy diet?’
