Before you begin


Check with the teacher: Have the children already completed any work in class related to this recipe or is this their introduction? Print activity sheets and certificates. Have paper, scissors and glue ready for the sequencing activity sheet.


Check with the children: Wash hands, hair tied back, sleeves rolled up, and aprons on? 1. Read the title and show them the picture sequence of the recipe. Ask the children:


• Have you eaten fruit salad? • Do bananas grow in this country? [no]


• Where do they grow? [lots of different hot countries such as India, China, Brazil and Mexico]


• How do they grow, in the ground or on trees? [in bunches on trees] • What colour are they when they first grow? [green]


• You might like to tell the children that monkeys famously like to eat bananas, but they open them at the opposite end from us!
