Day 16 | Planning our garden

Today we helped Mum decide what plants we should grow in the garden. We only have a small yard but mum has a book on how to grow vegetables and fruits in plant pots. One of the projects she has created for us is a plant project. The other week we chose which vegetable would be the one we grew for it. Today we counted how many plant pots would be left and then made a huge list of all our favourite fruits and vegetables.

ELLA: As always we started the day with P.E. some of the exercises were a bit tricky but I gave them a go. I then decided that I'd like to wear some nice clothes. Since lockdown started I've been wearing my leggings and t-shirts most days. They are comfy but a bit boring, it felt good to wear something different. I read some of my book The School for Good and Evil, its getting really good and I was happy the character Sophie finally wants to go home.

I had a break with Theo and we ate lunch and then planted some Marigold seeds. It took us ages as we planted each seed individually not knowing that we could put two or three together. We then wrote our plant list.

After lunch I did some art. I used a book that teaches you how to draw horses. I drew a few horses and felt that they all looked ok but I think the first horse was the best.



THEO: After lunch I worked on my meccano car that I am trying to build. We had a big problem. It was really frustrating as it just would not go together properly. Mum looked and couldn't sort it and then she asked Aaron what was wrong with it. He said one of the bits weren't the right size, he tried to fix it but it still didn't work. I was not happy, but we decided that the best thing to do would be to take the car completely to bits and start again using one of the other instructions as the car was a 5 in 1 kit.

HENRY (as told to Ella and Theo): My names Henry. I didn't like Joe Wickes today, P.E. is hard. I liked playing outside. I was the witch on the broom. The broom goes crack and the frog and the dog and the cat and the bird fall into the mud. They stop the dragon eating the witch and chips. Theo and Ella planted some seeds. I want an apple tree. We made a list of plants for Mum. I built a den and it was nice.
