Our Class Garden

 

At school we have Marigolds.

Marigolds have red, orange and yellow flowers.

Marigolds seeds are black and white. Birds love eating marigold seeds.

The marigold roots are called fibrous roots. Roots are on the bottom of the flower.

The roots get all the water and food from the soil.

We water our garden.

 

The garden is outside our classroom. We don't just have Marigolds we have lettuce too. One day we had lettuce on our buns.

Marigolds love rain and sun. Rabbits come and dig in our garden.

At school we have pansies in a pot. I found some yellow and purple blooms. Polyanthus are in the same pot as the pansies. Polyanthus are on one side of the pot and the pansies are on the other side of the pot. There are labels that tell you what they are. One of them says 'polyanthus' with a picture of polyanthus and the other one says 'pansies' with a picture of pansies. We didn't plant the pansies and polyanthus on the same day that we planted the marigolds. We did it on a different day.
