October "Apple Tasting" (FAS Tues/Thurs Class)
October 14, 2016, 09:00 AMOn Tuesday, October 4 the children
participated in an “Apple Tasting" Adventure!
Each child was given the opportunity to
taste three colours of apples: green,
red and yellow. After consuming each
colour, they were asked to choose their favorite one and write their name on an
“apple” in the colour they chose as the best.
This experience was exciting because it
used many of their senses. They got to
see, taste, touch, think, choose, colour and then extend this experience
through dramatic play. They engaged socially
in an apple stand, which included many apples in all three colours, baskets for
sorting and shopping, and cash registers to pay for their desired purchases.
Since Fall is a time of year that is filled
with the opportunity to consume many harvested vegetables and fruit, it was
very fun to participate in this kind of play…and see which colour was the most
popular!!!
Until next time.
