Plants! (and EQAO)

I hope everyone had a great long weekend! 

As you know from the plant creature that came home last week, we've started our plants and soils units.  We've also planted some bean, wheat and soy seeds, and we're investigating different types of plants, the parts of plants, and how they can grow. 

EQAO starts tomorrow, Wednesday, and the students will be writing every morning until next Wednesday, from 9:10-10:50.  Students will be allowed to have extra time, if needed.  Please try to ensure that your child gets to school on time and that there are no appointments booked on the mornings of these days.  Thank you! 


Many of our bean seeds are sprouting.  We will start transplanting them this week into small pots.
These were the plant pets that I grew in a nylon stocking.  I transplanted them into larger pots with more soil and have lots of arugula and grass growing.
