Summer

Summer 1 - Growing

The children have been enjoying listening to the stories Jaspers Beanstalk and Titch.

They have been learning all about life cycles. The children have planted their own beans just like Jasper and they are watching and waiting patiently for them to continue to grow. They know that you have to take time to care for their plants to help them to grow.

Please keep sending your pictures in from home of your beanstalks growing 😊🌱
