We're Back!



We have finally started school again! We have new 2nd graders. Our old second graders are now 3rd graders. We are back at taking care of our gardens at school. Last week we picked evil spiky thistles. We are pulling them to make our gardens look better. The first place we pulled up thistles was in the reading garden out front. We also pulled out weeds in the gardens outside the 3rd grade classrooms. Today, we worked in our hosta garden. It had a bunch of weeds, like dandelions and baby trees. We picked and picked and picked all the grass that had grown in there, too! Some of us got to use snippers. They got to cut off all the dead flower stems off the hostas. The weird plant that we noticed last year has continued to grow. We decided to let it stay.
