Fruits and Their Colours

Our learning goal

I can name some fruits and say their colours in English.

VIDEO LINK

Which fruit or colour words do you already know in English?

Use this to surface prior knowledge before teaching. Expect a mix of fruit names and colour words such as apple, banana, red or yellow.

Fruit Names

• Apple

• Banana

• Orange

• Grapes

• Strawberry

• Peach

This slide can support the part of the lesson where the song is introduced. Leave room for the teacher to add or play a fruit song externally; do not place lyrics on the slide unless the teacher has permission to use them.

What Is a Fruit?

Fruits are foods that grow on plants or trees.

Many fruits are sweet, juicy and colourful.

Keep the explanation simple and age-appropriate. The goal is basic vocabulary, not botanical classification.

Fruits We Can Learn Today

• apple

• banana

• orange

• grapes

• strawberry

• pear

• watermelon

Pronounce each word clearly and slowly. Encourage repetition aloud if appropriate, but keep the slide itself content-only.

Fruit in Everyday Life

• We eat fruit at breakfast, lunch or snack time.

• Fruit can be fresh, cut, or in a fruit salad.

• Different fruits help us learn new words and colours.

Which fruit can be green?

A

pear

B

banana

C

orange

D

strawberry

Checks the first vocabulary block and links to the colour slide: banana is yellow, orange is orange, strawberry is red, and pear can be green.

Complete the fruit sentences

Fruits grow on plants or trees. We can eat fruit at breakfast or snack time. Today we can learn apple, banana, orange, grapes, strawberry, pear and watermelon.

The blanks come from the first teaching block: what fruit is, where it grows, and the fruit list introduced today.

Red Fruits

• Apple can be red.

• Strawberry is red.

• Some fruits have one main colour.

Yellow and Green Fruits

• Banana is yellow.

• Pear can be green.

• Kiwi is green

• Fruit colours help us describe what we see.

Orange and Purple Fruits

• Orange is orange.

• Grapes can be purple.

• A fruit name and a colour name can sometimes be the same word.

Point out that 'orange' is both a fruit and a colour in English.

One Fruit, More Than One Colour

Some fruits can have more than one colour.

A watermelon is green outside and red inside.

An apple can be red, green or yellow.

This slide helps children move beyond one-word matching and notice that real fruits do not always fit only one colour.

Which fruit is orange and has the same name as a colour?

A

banana

B

orange

C

grapes

D

pear

Directly checks the key idea from the orange and purple fruits slide.

Complete the colour facts

A banana is yellow and a pear can be green. Grapes can be purple. A watermelon is green outside and red inside.

Anchors the taught fruit-colour pairings and the idea that some fruits have more than one colour.

Match Fruit and Colour

Use this as the transition into the teacher's external quiz platform such as Kahoot or Quizizz. The slide marks the quiz section without turning the slide itself into an interaction.

Fruit and Colour Pairs

This anchors the correct pairings before or after the quiz section.

Useful Colour Sentences

• The apple is red.

• The banana is yellow.

• The grapes are purple.

• The pear is green.

Model the sentence frames clearly. This supports simple spoken production after recognition.

Looking and Naming

When we look at a fruit, we can say:

• its name

• its colour

• if it has more than one colour

This slide summarises the skill the children are building: observe, name, and describe.

Which sentence is correct?

A

The grapes are purple.

B

The grapes is purple.

C

The pear are green.

D

The banana are yellow.

Checks the sentence frames from the final language block, especially the plural form with grapes.

Name one fruit and its colour.

Look for a fruit name plus at least one colour, based on the sentence frames and the 'Looking and Naming' summary. Example acceptable ideas: 'A pear is green' or 'A watermelon is green and red'.

What is one thing you learned today?

Reflection prompt with no single correct answer. Encourage children to mention one fruit, one colour, or one sentence they can now say.

What helped you learn best today?

Reflection prompt about the learning process. Answers may mention the song, pictures, matching, or sentence practice.
