Kinder Gardens



Bamike's Garden
Kimani the Happy Gardener
The Kindergarten classes are creating vegetable gardens this week.  They are getting great practice using fine motor skills as they fold paper into furrows and place beans and tissue in rows to create a garden.  I have asked them to make patterns as they plant their veggies.  They are excited to make signs for their gardens as a finishing touch.  This project follows a painting project where they drew and painted root vegetables like carrots and onions growing underground.
