Dear Cooper
families,
We have been religiously collecting leaves in the morning and afternoon for the
silk worms to eat. We are noticing that as they are getting bigger, they are
needing more food to fill their bellies. We are keenly awaiting the next stage
in the silk worms amazing life cycle.
Unfortunately, none
of the beans have appeared to have been successful in sprouting from the soil.
We took this experience as a learning opportunity and discussed reasons as to
why we thought the seeds have not grown. These were our responses:
Lucy – We planted beans.
Sebastian – We planted seeds.
Toby – They haven’t grown yet.
Eddie S – They need water.
Lucy – We covered the seeds with dirt so we can’t see them.
George – They need more water to grow.
Archie – They need water. We put beans and flowers in the dirt.
We also started
again! Planting seeds that Miss Gilbert bought from Bunnings instead and giving
them a little more care and love than we gave the last batch. Hopefully they
will start to sprout in 10 – 12 days as the packet says. We will be sure to
keep you posted.
We hope that you have a wonderful weekend.
Love Miss Gilbert and Miss C
