ELA.2.W.7
Students rotate through tasting stations featuring 3 simple garden-based samples (e.g., plain cucumber slices, chopped lettuce with lemon, raw spinach). After modeling safe handwashing and tasting routines, students use a smiley-face chart to record what they notice about taste (sweet, bitter, crunchy, soft) and preference. The class creates a large anchor chart of patterns they observe and discusses surprising results to spark curiosity.
