Fruity Friday goes Fairtrade

We decided that as it is Fairtrade Fortnight, we would do a little taste taste on bananas for February's Fruity Friday.

We have been learning loads about Fairtrade this week. We have been busy finding fairtrade products at home and bringing in the empty wrappers for display in our classroom.  
Today we watched a video all about Fairtrade:

We each got a piece of regular banana and a piece of Fairtrade banana. We did a taste taste to see if we could taste the difference between them. 

With our partner, we tasted the bananas and discussed what was similar and what was different. 

When we were finished, we wrote our results on our whiteboards and Mrs Shine recorded the results.  

Some of us thought the two bananas tasted the same. They were sweet and tasty! 
Other people thought the fairtrade bananas were sweeter and therefore nicer! 
It was very hard to decide but one thing is for sure, we would definitely buy fairtrade bananas in the future! 

Harry brought in a blood orange for us to taste during fruity friday.
