Fruit or vegetable?

Teaching notes

Fourteen food words for young learners to sort into fruit and vegetables, from apple, banana and strawberry to carrot, potato and broccoli. Tricky ones such as tomato and avocado are left out, so every word has one clear answer for A1 classes learning food vocabulary.

Ask each child to say the word aloud before they drag it, and to answer "Do you like it?" with "Yes, I do" or "No, I don't". Afterwards, children draw their favorite fruit and vegetable and label them. For a second round, switch it to Speed sort, or print it as a worksheet so children write each word in the right column.
