We all brought fruit today to share in making and eating a Friendship Fruit Salad. The peeling and cutting and mixing all promoted lots of language about cooking at home and the fruits etc that they like (or don’t like). Cutting some of the fruit was a bit tricky – slippery or squishy or rolling away…
This was a good exercise in practising a real-life skill that we all need to master.
The conversation got onto seeds and stones and nuts and then onto the outside and the inside, the peel or skin and so on.
We all helped to make it, and most people had a taste of the different fruits, which is all we ask of them, just to try something different.
Makenzie said “I tasted it but I didn’t quite like it.”
But some people – including Billy – polished off the lot!
