During the summer term, the children began by planting their first batch of plants, learning specifically about what happens when we plant broad beans and how to care for them as they grow. They listened carefully to instructions and worked thoughtfully throughout the activity. The session also linked to maths, as the children counted how many plant pots they used and measured out scoops of compost for each one. After planting, they watered the pots, counting how many squirts each plant received. This hands-on experience not only introduced them to basic gardening skills but also supported their understanding of counting and following instructions. We look forward to planting more, including edible plants, as the term continues.
