Fruit salad is a wonderful treat
Fruit is sweet and fun to eat
Apples are crunchy, red and round
They fall from trees onto the ground
An orange is the color of its name
Peeling one is like a game
Bananas are yellow, soft and long
Eat a bunch, you can't go wrong
Strawberries are sticky, sweet and red
It's messy to eat them in your bed
Watermelons are juicy, sweet and pink
Spit your seeds into the sink
Fruit salad is great in any weather
Make a bowl to eat together

This week the children
moved into their new
classroom and accepted the
change beautifully and were
settled right away.
They played, danced and
had a great time while
exploring the different
centers in the class.
.
This week we learnt about
‘Fruits’. We saw pictures of
various fruits in ‘The Big Book of
Fruits’, played with pretend
fruits, played different fruitrelated games and did many
fruit-related activities.
We also brought in our favorite
fruit in class to make fruit
salad. We talked about our
favorite fruit, its color and why
it is our favorite fruit.
