Oh the joy of "Secret Garden Pots!"
Hello parents!
As you know, we are reading Secret Garden together in class. The students love the book and enjoy me reading it aloud. It is fun. Also, we have started our unit on plants. I was thinking the other night - which is a very dangerous thing for me to do - and devised a plan to wrap-up our reading by combining literature and science! Who knew?
I have decided to assign groups with the task of creating a live garden that reflects their vision of what they think the garden looks like. See! I told you it is dangerous for me to think!
Here is what they will need:
pot with dirt
flower seeds
simple decorations!
The kids can fill you in on all other other stuff. Remember, I expect the children to keep it simple.
Yours favorite fifth grade teacher,
Mr. Turskey
