My wife used a watermelon to teach math and much more fist second
If I can remember

Weight the watermelon …learn pounds and ounces

Cut the watermelon …it is a circle

Cut it in half and then quarters

Each kid gets the for quarters to make half and then a circle

They eat the watermelon saving the seeds

Put the seeds in sets of tens and the ones that are left and get the answer

There was more but I cannot remember

She taught with matchbox cars and track
