Learn Create Share Through Seed Planting

Learning New Vocabulary

 We learnt how to plant seeds. We had to say what we were doing as we were doing it. We used lots of new vocabulary and phrases like 'a pair of gloves', 'seed tray', 'scooping up soil with a trowel' and 'sprinkling our seeds with water to make the soil damp'.

We created instructions so that we could teach someone else how to plant a seed. Here is some of our writing.
