For our final Fruit Face-Off today our students needed to think back to all the fruits they tasted during since our Fruit Face-Off days began.
Instead of 2 fruits today, students' received a fruit salad with a bunch of familiar and unfamiliar fruits.
Inside this fruit salad were some, but not all, of the fruits you have been given to try since day 1.
The challenge was to write down 2 things:
1. The fruits that are inside the fruit salad.
2. The fruits that are missing from the fruit salad.
Students who figured out which fruits were inside and not inside their fruit salad cup, wrote down your answers and sent it down to the office for a draw. The winning answer will win the prize for their whole class.....an extra fruit day of their favourite fruit next Monday for their whole class!....
.....and the results are in... the winning class for the extra Fruit day of their choice is......Mrs. Einhorn's 1/2 class!!! Congratulations enjoy your fruit treats kids.
We want to thank our School Council for bringing this terrific Healthy Schools initiative to our school; especially Mrs. Benzaquen who applied for the grant and organized the initiative. We also want to thank the many parent volunteers who spent their Monday mornings cutting up fruit for all our students. THANK YOU!
We are proud of our students for not being scared to try new foods and for displaying their growth mindset. We hope you are able to continue such experimentation at home and help your families try new foods and make healthy choices.
