Reception (Class 2) - Design Technology - Fruit Kebabs
After talking about the different types of fruit and where they grow we made our own fruit kebabs!
We made sure our hands were clean and we cut the fruit carefully thinking about how we hold the tools. We enjoyed tasting new fruit and describing it to our friend.
