The summer season is approaching and K4 took the day to discuss the fruits we can eat in summer. First, we went over all our favorite fruits and which ones we can eat this season. We discussed how not every fruit is available during certain times of the year. Afterwards, we made a summer craft using two of those fruits; watermelon and lemons. Then, we tried our hand at making our own fruit themed dessert. Using an apple shaped tray and strawberry flavored sweet, again two summertime fruits. The kids all took turns helping to make it and after a couple of hours in the freezer we all got to enjoy a refreshing treat after lunch. Finally, concluding our fruits unit, we did a fun fruit themed I spy worksheet.
Each fruit we found we marked with different shapes allowing kids to review their fruits, numbers, and shapes all at the same time! A sweet way to kick off this upcoming summer.
