Last week Ms. Zblewski's class saw our garlic and kale has grown. The leaves places on top of the seeds helped hold moisture so they could grow. Students had to thread the plants and move them apart so the vegetables and roots can properly grow. They then recovered the plants with leaves so they can continue to grow.
What we did today:
Today we pulled weeds and harvested broccoli. We also learned about pollinator insects such as bees and butterflies and predatory insects like ladybugs, dragonflies, fruit flies and spiders. Observations: The transplants did better with growing. As well as there was holes in the leaves of the broccoli. Next time: We will plant things that will attract beneficial insects such as red flowers. From Ms. Zblewski's Fourth Grade Class ~ Room 24 |
