Welcome & Review Yes No Comments and/or Changes Welcome participants and Review Lesson 3 Ask students: Who tried a vegetable this last week in the cafeteria, maybe something you had not tried before? Who else has tried that vegetable? Group Goals Encourage students to eat fruits during school lunch Educator will follow up with students next week Refer to MyPlate: We use this to make healthy food choices and this is what our plate should look like. Ask: Does your lunch at school have a lot of fruits that MyPlate suggests? Can you name some fruits you have seen during school lunch? Review that together with vegetables, half of your plate should be fruits and vegetables. Core Activity Yes No Comments and/or Changes Fresh, Frozen, Canned, and Dried Educator writes each letter of the alphabet on the white board Go through each letter of the alphabet and have students name a fruit starting with that letter

2 Ask students for thumbs up/down if they have tried and liked that fruit Display pictures of unfamiliar fruits from around the world and real fruits Referring to the pictures ask: Have you noticed that many of the fruits in our fruit alphabet are ones that we do not see everyday. Where do you think these fruits come from? Ask: How do you think these fruits get to our grocery store? Activity Prep: put a bottle of fruit juice, can of fruit, bag of frozen fruit, bag of dried fruit and piece of fresh fruit in a paper bag. Have a couple of students try and figure out how all the items in the bag are similar and different. Discuss how most of the fruits that we see in the grocery store travel many miles trucks, shipping ports, boats, planes, trains Mention that some fruits and grown locally by farmers and can be brought to local markets and these fruits travel short distances Explain what a processing factory does and preserving fruit canning, freezing, drying or juicing Hold up the example of fresh fruit To eat fresh fruit all we have to do is wash them and they are ready to eat. Mention BAC and that we want to be sure that we wash away all the BAC on our fresh fruit before eating it Explain that fresh fruit cannot be stored for a long time because they spoil which is thy there are so many different methods on preserving them Explain that preserving the fruit is kept nutritious for us to eat later Explain there are several ways we can preserve fruits canned, frozen, dried, and juiced CANNED: Hold up example of canned is popular since they can be stored for a long time, ready to eat out of can.

3 Canned can also come in plastic packaging. Ask: What are some fruits you like to eat that come in a can? FROZEN: Hold up example of frozen fruit stored in freezer until you are ready to eat them, many come in frozen form but must be thawed before eating them. Ask: What are some frozen fruits you like to eat? DRIED: Hold up example of dried fruit When fruit has been dried the water/juice in it has been taken out. A popular dried fruit is raisins they are soft, wrinkled because the water/juice has been taken out of them. They are good to eat right out of the package and can be stored for a long tie until we are ready to eat them. Ask: What are some fruits that you have tried that come dried? JUICE: Hole up example of juice. Another way we can get fruit is juice form. Explain that we take out the water/juice from fruit to make it dried, but when we make juice we take away the part of the fruit we chew/eat. Talk about labels saying 100% juice so we can count it as a serving of fruit. Ask: What are some fruit juices that you ve tried? Comprehension Check Why do we preserve our fruits? Who can name two ways we preserve our fruits? Who can name the other two ways to preserve fruits? Who remembers why we wash fresh fruits? Reflection/Application Questions What are some ways you could pack your school lunch and include a serving of fruit in it? If you wanted some strawberries to eat, but it was winter and you couldn t find

4 fresh ones in the store, what kind of strawberries could you buy instead? Core Activity Yes No Comments and/or Changes Why do we need fruits? Play the Three Guesses game with students one student gets to pick a card of a mystery fruit. Classmates get to ask yes or no questions to figure out what fruit it is. Refer to MyPlate visual Introduce Fruit group ask students what color is the fruit group? Explain there are a variety of different fruits that come in different colors like the vegetable group Explain the different colors provide vitamins and minerals we need everyday keep our eyes healthy, build strong bones, healthy skin and hair protect us from getting sick, heal scraps and cuts. Scroll Book Activity Mention that fruit tastes great and it is good for us. Read through each statement with class and give students time to fill in the blanks. #1 Fruits help heal cuts and bruises, #2 help our bodies fight germs, #3 help us see in the dark and #4 give us healthy skin and shiny hair Mention that fruit does a lot for us and it is good for us to eat some fruit every day. They come in different colors and it makes our meals and snacks look and taste great. Have students practice so they can read the book when they get home Application/Reflection Questions Which food is a healthier choice when eating a snack: fruit or donuts?

5 Food Tasting Activity Yes No Comments and/or Changes Review classroom expectations for snack Utilize proper food handling safety Ensure students and helpers wash hands prior to touching food. Fruit Medley Educator can choose between doing a fruit kabob or fruit and low fat vanilla yogurt dip. Lesson provides combinations of fruit for both options. ** Put ingredients or alternate recipe used in comments section. Review Questions Yes No Comments and/or Changes Review lesson and prompt answers as needed: Who can tell me what fruit does for us? What are some of the forms we can buy fruits at the store?
