Last week all of us in Year 3 made a visit to one our class member’s amazing garden. What a lovely time we had. Mr Ryan gave us a very informative tour of their vegetable and fruit growing garden. We learned many new facts about different soils, the different parts of flowers, how flowers pollinate, what plants need to grow plus lots and lots of other amazing features of plants!
Afterwards we had a real treat. Miss Natalie invited us to use some of the fruits and vegetables to practise our cutting and slicing skills. We then made our own sandwiches…which we got to eat as we sat in the shade under the trees – yummy!
We also had time to use our observational sketching skills to carefully draw the beautiful patterns inside particular fruits and vegetables.
