a great end of the end of the year story. After reading the story I would buy 2 watermelon. One traditional oblong melon, and one of the newly seedless one.
We then would compare the two fruits. Next I would cut the large watermelon giving each child a piece I would tell the children to keep the seeds we will count and add all of the seeds to see just how many seeds were in the watermelon students will get a chance to keep their seeds.Then we will cut the smaller watermelon open.(hopefully in the new smaller melons there wont be any seeds)
