Day Four Summer School

Weather: 69 degrees, 5 mph wind. No rain.

Journal notes: " Bed 8 --green peppers are 8 inches tall, green and doing very well, good!"
"Bed 3 Rutabaga is 1 inch tall, green. Doing very good"
"there is grass growing near the plants and turnip beetles in the beds".

Our classroom activity is making newspaper pots by rolling a strip of newspaper on a soup can and folding over then securing by gluing. We then fill the pots with soil and plant corn and bean seeds for students to take home to plant.

Outside there are lots of cucumbers growing in the big pot, so we transplant a few back into one of the beds.
