Our Garden

Our children were so excited to plant their own seeds today. Thank you to those families who sent in donations. 

Children took total responsibility for this experience today - filling their pots with dirt, choosing their own seeds, planting the seeds, writing the name of their seeds on a stick and watering the seeds. 

We included art and literacy in our planting area to help showcase what we planted and share our ideas with others. 

Planting Seeds

We have been reading many stories about seeds and how plants grow. To help children experience the joy of gardening we set up a planting station in the classroom today. 

There were five choices of vegetables to choose from - beans, cucumbers, peas, carrots, and tomatoes. 

The children were responsible for filling their cup with soil, choosing what type of seed they wanted to plant, planting it, and giving it some water. 

We hope to see some sprouts growing when we return from after the Easter weekend!
