Rain, glorious rain, but we were not used to rain, mud on our shoes, wet hair. It was not cold though. Warm creamy leak and potato soup. Hugh arrived unexpectedly also bringing a gift of food and talk of earth origins.
Using a bunch of grasses as our talking stick, and with no homework prepared, we spoke spontaneously of grass:
- The smell of cut grass.
- Wild oats, and sowing them
- Thug grass and even more bullying grass
- How to make a whistle with a blade of grass – Gina and Kally mistresses of this
- The different greens of grass
To the land, where Peter measured the Black Poplars and walnuts. Not much change but we hoped for more next week after this rain.
Back at base we got out the hapazone sheet and tried to identify the flowers we bashed last week and name them.
Virginia carved 6 inch intervals out of a stick and we put it in the pond where the deep part is divided from the shallower part. A perfect opportunity, with it being so shallow now. Emily caught a frog on camera.
HOMEWORK: Grass – what type grows in your garden? Bring them in! How many ways to describe the colour green of grass?
