A Seed Provocation that became a Taste Provocation

Cucumber and lemon slices were set out on the light table to give the Yeladim another opportunity to notice where seeds come from. The Yeladim  picked up the slices with tweezers. 



Benjamin found something, it was a seed!

The Yeladim were tasting the lemons and cucumbers too. 
The teacher noticed their interest in the taste of the slices and  asked
the Yeladim if they'd like to try some at snack time.


Peretz tried a lemon slice and asked for more.



Zalman said it was burny. He finished his lemon slice and asked for another.

Benjamin asked for more too.

Hilary tried one, but she did not like it. 
To broaden the Yeladim's vocabulary, the teacher asked the Yeladim
if the lemons were sweet or sour.
They responded "sour." 

To contrast the sour taste, cantaloupe was offered for the Yeladim to try.
