The Silver class planted some Sunflower seeds and had some lovely plants before school closed (as part of our “Living Things” topic. Let’s have a look and see how they are doing!
Wow!! Looks like some of the seeds are growing and we are starting to see some stem poking through the compost! Well done Silver class! Here is a sunflower diary you can download if you like, or you can make your own at home by just drawing what you see in the pictures and telling an adult.
Oh my goodness!! When we got these there were no flowers at all. They are growing big and bright and beautiful! I will keep you updated on how they grow.
