Growing Things

Many of Sadie's schoolmates brought in plants for teacher appreciation week and to go along with the May theme of "Gardens". The children planted their plants around the school. The older children used the garden bed on the preschool side of the building, Sadie and the other toddlers used this planter in front of the school.

Sadie's plant is the bright pink/red dahlia in the middle of the planter. She chose it herself at the Co-op. After I picked her up yesterday, she showed me where they are keeping the planting tools and watering cans.

In her classroom are huge flowers the children made out of paper and paint. Sadie's is "puh-pull" (purple!). She is really loving this gardening unit.
