Today the children in room 14 began the journey towards creating
their new garden. The children worked in groups of 4 to measure and
draw out how the garden will look according to the plans. They had to
accurately read scales, measure and mark out pathways and work out the
total amount of square meters required to carry out the project
successfully.
After
we carried out this measurement task it was time to look at the actual
area and mark out the various garden perimeters. The children had to
take into account where the sun rises and sets, where the best place for
the compost bins would be and how we can protect the drain-ways and
overflow area.
Just
look at these unsightly ares- BUT not for long.... it will soon be
transformed into an abundant and beautiful space for horticultural
learning and teaching!!
