My Garden

April 6, 2016, 01:38 PM
Spring is here!

 
During playtime the children were able to create their garden using different shapes of felt on the felt board.
 


At circle, we read the book My Garden by Kevin Henkes. In this book, the girl grows chocolate rabbits, seashells, jellybean bushes and strawberries that glow. That is not your ordinary garden!
 


After the story, I asked the children “ What would you grow in your garden?” They responded through drawings.


Boaz - blueberry

 

Keira: flower
 
Ruka: flower
 
Jeffrey: watermelon
 
 
Chantel: flowers, ice cream, blueberry and strawberry
 
 
Claire: ice cream
 
Sarah: sunflower
 
Benjamin: cheese and apples
 
Chloe F: watermelon
 

Just like in the story, some children used their imagination in what they wanted to grow in their garden. Anything can be grown! They were also able to enhance their artistic abilities in drawing their pictures.
 

 Until next time,

Patricia
