Dogwood Trees Planted

The Bedford Garden Club visited Davis School first grade classes last Friday in honor of Arbor Day. Each child was given a tiny dogwood tree to plant with their families. The Garden Club graciously donated some extra trees to us and we planted them around our school. We looked for a sunny spot and hope our little trees grow to help make our school even more beautiful!

Kindergarten Gardeners At Work!

Ms. Muse's kindergarten class had a great time planting in our new garden!

First Grade Gardeners!

Mrs. Hoey, Mrs. Fontaine and Mrs. Anderson's first grade class did some planting outside on Friday. It was a perfect day for planting!

Beans and Peas!

Mrs. Kimball-Dorey's class planted beans and peas inside then used the Book Creator app on our IPads to document the plant growth.
Today they transplanted their plants into their garden bed outside!

Beautiful Flowers!

The bulbs planted last fall by the kids in Ms. Petrocelli and Mrs. Marino's classes are now in full bloom, making our school entrance so welcoming!

Kids and Science!

Lila Bailey from Mrs. Kimball-Dorey's first grade classroom participated in the march for science last weekend!

Gardening is Happening!

Ms. Petrocelli's Class Does Some Planting!

First Graders in Room 231 planted Little Finger Carrots, Salad Bowl Lettuce, Parsley and Mint in the classroom.  First Graders wanted to plant things that we could eat!

Our plan is to transplant the vegetables to the Davis School Garden in May.  We learned that mint plants will grow and spread out in the garden.  We'll watch mint plants grow in a flower box in our classroom.

Mulch Delivery!

Bedford 's DPW delivered a truck load of bark mulch for the paths in our garden this morning.

Seed Exploration

Garden Shed!

Davis has a new garden shed to hold all of the supplies and tools for our garden!
Inside are watering cans and trowels, and soon we'll have gloves, forked tools, and lots of other things kids can use when they're planting or exploring or observing.
See you at the garden!
