Gardening project in Zasqua

3° grade Science teachers

Third grade and Zasqua are happy to have regular classes once again! Last week we started our gardening project in Zasqua. Thus far, we have cleaned the soil and made our parcels, as you will see in the pictures. However, we will live the entire cycle of gardening by planting, watering the plants, measuring their growth and potentially harvesting and making a salad!

This trimester we will be working with lettuce and radish. We will see as we visit Zasqua on a weekly basis whether compost really help plants to grow taller and healthier. We will have some plants in soil with compost and some others in soil without compost. As we visit Zasqua, we will record carefully what we see and prove our initial hypothesis.

Thanks to school, the third grade Science teachers, William Rincón and the rest of the Zasqua staff to make this beautiful project come to life!
