Year 1 on Countess Way ignited their next project yesterday, ‘Growing’.
We did lots of fun activities including:
Tasting fruit and vegetables from around the world and guessing where they come from.
We tried exotic fruits like passion fruit, avocado and papaya- even using our WOW words to describe their taste and texture.
We planted bean seeds to keep in our greenhouse.
We started our bean diaries by writing instructions on how to plant a bean seed, we will be observing our bean seeds closely in the next few weeks to see how they grow!
We did observational drawings of flowers, plants and leaves and labelled the different parts.
We had to look very closely at the shapes of the petals and leaves!
As you can see, we have made an excellent start collecting lots of new knowledge and learning for our project! We can’t wait to find out more.
Thank you to the parents who have donated seeds already and for the parents who helped yesterday- it is greatly appreciated!
