A Garden of Their Own

The students at Main School are happy because they have a school garden this year. They are growing peas,
carrots, radishes, and potatoes. They are also growing lettuce, tomatoes, and strawberries.
All of the classes worked on the garden. The teachers told them what to do, but they didn’t do the work. Each
class planted some tomato and pepper seeds in little cups inside. They put the cups near the windows and
waited for warm weather. Then they moved the baby plants outdoors and planted them in the garden. For other
plants, seeds were put right into the ground. This is how the students planted peas, carrots, and beans.
The radishes were ready to eat first. Each student got to have one. The students liked them, and they’re
waiting to try more food.
The garden is very big, so the playground is smaller because some of the play area was used for the garden.
That’s all right with the students because they love their garden! They also love the food they get from it.
