Have children practice counting by voting for their favorite vegetables. First make a list on chart paper of all the vegetables kids can think of, adding pictures for nonreaders. Give each child a cup and enough counters to represent the whole class. Write the number of votes next to each vegetable on the list. You can also show the results with a bar graph on chart paper.
Children place a sticker in their preferred vegetable row.
Some potato chips are green because the potatoes were immature when harvested or the soil did not cover the potato. Have children draw pictures of their own theories of why green potato chips exist, then label or dictate their explanations.
