Next week, we will review healthy and unhealthy food and learned about healthy eating and why it is important to eat healthy and exercise. Then for our second science lesson we will learn about the origin of our food. Where does milk come from? Eggs? Where can we find vegetables? And so forth.
Art	This week, we made a caterpillar using paint and balloons inspired by the book ‘The very Hungry Caterpillar’. Then for our second lesson we learned how to cut fruits using a knife and a cutting board and made our own fruits salad.	Next week, we will paint fruits and we will experiment painting with spaghetti.
