Potato Planting

 Here at Awahono School we get so many learning opportunities because of our school garden and the wonderful Sue Coleman (our resident expert!).  Sue was teaching the children how to plant potatoes and she showed us 2 ways of doing this, one in soil and one in pea straw.

The children love this real world learning and is linking in nicely with our topic 'The Science Behind Our Food'.

  1. Hi Room 5,

    It looks like you had heaps of fun planting potatoes. Have any of you got a vegetable garden at home? Do you plan to plant more vegetables? Maybe next time you guys could share the planting process instead of just photos. What do you plan to do with the potatoes when their grown? It is great how everyone was included in this activity

    Great post Room 5
