Green Foods

In honour of St. Patrick's Day, the Grade Twos tasted some green foods on Monday, March 18th. 

 

The vegetable Kale is leafy and green and came from Mexico. 

The vegetable called Brussel Sprouts had to be cooked in the microwave for 5 minutes and everyone in our end of the school said they could smell them!  They came from California.  

 The kiwi fruit came from Italy.  Although they were brown and fuzzy on the outside, the inside was green with black seeds and had a whitish core.

 Honeydew melon came from China.  There was a hard yellowish rind on the outside and seeds in jelly that had to be scooped out of the middle before it was cut in pieces. 

 Students were good sports and gave everything a try.  Of the 19 students here today,
-14 liked the kiwi
-13 liked the honeydew
-5 liked the kale and
-12 liked the brussel sprouts.  

Happy St. Patrick's Day!
