We have been learning about procedural texts or 'How to' texts in reading and writing. We read a text about how to make lemonade and decided to make it ourselves to check if we could follow each step.
At the shamba (farm in Swahili), where the school is located, there are lots and lots of lime trees. So, we decided to use the limes to make.....well....limeade!
To make limeade we needed a few things:
- limes
- sugar
- water
1) Slice a lime in half.
2) Squeeze the juice into a container and take out the seeds.
3) Pour two tablespoons of juice into a cup.
4) Add two tablespoons of sugar.
5) Add water and stir well.
6) Taste the limeade. You may add more sugar or more lime juice to make it taste just right.
7) Enjoy your limeade.
Maybe you can make your own limeade....or lemonade! Some of us have made orange juice and passionfruit juice and or course limeade at home now that we know the recipe!
In the future, we are hoping to make more delicious drinks and maybe even food from fruits and vegetables that we grow on the farm.
Questions:
1. Which ingredients do you need to make limeade?
2. Which do you add first: the water, lemon juice or sugar?
4. What other fruit can you use to make juice? Can you make juice out of all fruit? What other types of drinks can you make with fruit?
