Kindergarten and Second Grade Gardeners!

Mrs. Avis and Ms. Bourgeois worked with their kindergarten and second grade students to get them ready to go out and plant in their shared garden bed. Mrs. Avis taught her second grade students ahead of time about worms, their habitats, their body structure and what benefits they provide to the soil. On the second day of this lesson, Ms. Bourgeois'  kindergarten students joined the second graders for them to read to the kindergartners about worms and to review the previous taught lesson. All of our students were asked to be "scientists" and look for (observe) worms when we went outside to plant. The students found several worms and were able to move them to our garden plot. We planted pansies and snap peas. All of the students really enjoyed their learning time and planting time with one another!
