Honey Tasting

This week we wrapped up our Rosh Hashanah unit.  Here are some highlights:

We tasted 4 different types of honey and documented our experience.  First, the honey was labeled with numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4.  Some things the Green Room Friends discovered were the honeys all looked a little different. Honey number 1 was in a tray and also had real honeycomb! The color was very light and transparent. Honey numbers 2 and 3 were both the same yellowish color but the textures were different. And honey number 4 was very brown was compared to looking like syrup. After we compared and contrasted the look and textures, it was time to taste!

Of course all of our friends enjoyed all 4 honeys but they all had their favorite:

Shai said,”Honey number 1 is my favorite, it tastes like ice cream.”

David said honey number 2 “Tastes like the honey at my house. My favorite one is the black one. (4)”

Lia pointed to her favorite honey which was also the dark honey. (4)

Ella said,”Honey number 3 is my favorite.”

Yehonathan said, “Honey number 3 is the best one. It’s really honey!”

We discussed how we dip apples in honey on Rosh Hashana to ask Hashem for a sweet New Year!
