Ms. Aliβs class has been busy growing something berry special! ππ±
The students started strawberry seeds in their hydroponic gardening system, which gave them a hands-on way to learn about how plants grow and observe the roots as they developed. Over time, those tiny seeds grew into beautiful strawberry plants!
With Ms. Sandy's help and her green thumb, the students transplanted the strawberry plants and continued learning about what living things need to grow. What a fun way to explore science, responsibility, and the magic of gardening! ππ

Ms. Emilyβs class has been watching their learning grow this spring! π±π
The students planted grass seed, watered it, cared for it, and observed the changes as it began to grow. They even gave their grass a little βhaircutβ by trimming it! βοΈπΎ This hands-on activity was a fun way for our young learners to practice responsibility, patience, and learn more about how plants grow.
Way to go, Ms. Emilyβs class! ππ±
