Today we learned about fruit! We started off the lesson by asking the kids what their favorite fruits are and how many fruits they think exist in the world; they were completely shocked to learn that the world has around 2,000 different types of fruit! The next thing we discussed was the importance of fruits, detailing the different benefits in the vitamins and minerals found in fruits. We then followed that up by discussing five very popular fruits, (those being watermelon, oranges, bananas, apples, and grapes) and what sorts of benefits each of those specific fruits provide to those who are consuming them. Next, we talked about some unpopular fruits that exist in the world, such as jackfruit and durian, but then pointed out how useful they are to our health, too. We next had a guessing game with a picture of many different fruits and listened to a song about fruit. The lesson was finished off with a "Guess the Fruit" quiz and having the kids name 5 different fruits that they learned about today.
