Yesterday was fruit tasting day!
The Reception children at The Stables went out to have a look in the planters to see if they could find any fruit and vegetables that may have been growing in them. The children enjoyed communicating with each other, talking about what they had found and helping each other to dig up the potatoes. They used their mathematical skills to compare sizes and weight, and discussed how long they thought they may have been growing for.
The children talked about how the potatoes were created and what they thought would have been needed in the environment to help them grow. We could tell the children had been listening to our conversations last year as most of them knew that the rain and the sunshine had helped to create everything in our planters, along with a little help from our budding gardeners of course!!
