Planting Sunflowers

Have a read of some of our sunflower recounts!

We have been working really hard to use time words to help sequence our ideas.

We also are beginning to use some great adjectives and smilies!

On a cloudy, Friday morning, Room 14 went outside to plant sunflowers. We planted sunflowers because we wanted to see what they look like when they grow. We also planted them to decorate our classroom. We felt excited. Firstly we put soil in the pot. It felt soft like a pillow. It also went in my nails and made them black. I blinked really, really hard because lots of soil came out of the soil bag, like smoke coming out of a fire. Secondly we made holes in the soil for the little, pink seeds. When my group was called up to collect the seeds we went to get them. Finally we put the tiny, little, pink seeds into the soil. When we got back to class Miss Fisher watered the sunflower seeds. I loved the experience because I love watching plants grow.

On a sunny, Friday morning Room 14 went to plant beautiful sunflowers to see if they will grow. Our funny class went behind the shady tree. Firstly Miss Fisher gave us soil. Secondly we made holes for the pink, bright seeds. After that we covered the seeds with dirt. The seeds felt soft like squishy worms. I heard cicadas in the bush. Once everyone was done we came back to class and Miss Fisher found a sunny spot for the sunflowers. Then we watered them. It was awesome planting the sunflowers because my friends came too.

Last Friday when it was sunny Room 14 went out to plant sunflowers. We planted them because we wanted to make our classroom beautiful. Firstly we took our pots and filled our pots with soil. It felt like lots of sand. Then we used our hands to press some little holes in the dirt. We made the holes very deep. It felt like I was hammering. Next Miss Fisher gave us some seeds. The seeds were little and pink. Then I covered the little, pink seeds with soil. I loved planting our sunflowers because I love decorating our class.

On a cloudy Friday morning Room 14 went outside, behind the classroom because we were planting sunflowers to make the class look beautiful. First we filled the pot with soil and it felt rocky, yucky and rough. Secondly we made little holes in the dirt and I felt little pieces of dirt and big pieces. It felt bumpy and I felt tired and happy. Thirdly Miss Fisher gave me some little seeds and I put them in their holes and covered the little seeds with dirt. Finally we went back to Room 14 and we put the pots in a sunny place. We were so excited but I was the happiest because I love sunflowers and I love beautiful flowers.
