通过亲手种植、细心呵护，美高宝宝们不仅能够了解到不同植物的特点和生长周期，还懂得了的生命之谜。

与“莓”邂逅

在幼儿园的小农场里，美高宝宝们认真地种植着一棵棵小小的草莓。

他们认真地挖坑、填土、浇水，小心地把草莓苗埋在土里。

接下来的日子里，美高宝宝们每天都会来到小农场里观察草莓的生长变化。

他们看着那些小小的苗茎慢慢长高，看着那些小小的叶子变得越来越绿，看着草莓花瓣一个个绽放开来。

随着时间的推移，美高宝宝们期待已久的时刻终于到来了——草莓开花了！

美高宝宝们兴奋地围在草莓苗旁，用小手轻轻地触摸着那些花瓣，好奇地问着老师：“草莓为什么要开花呀？”

老师笑着告诉他们，草莓花开后，就会结出一个个小小的果实，那就是我们最喜欢吃的草莓了。

美高宝宝们听了后，都不约而同地盯着那些小小的花苞，期待着它们能够尽快开放出来，让他们可以品尝到美味的草莓。

“瓜”趣横生

在土培黄瓜的园艺课堂中，孩子们通过观察和亲手操作，了解了黄瓜的叶子、叶毛和竹竿的作用。

老师为孩子们演示了黄瓜叶毛的作用，即保护植物。

孩子们通过观察黄瓜的叶毛，了解到它们能够防御植物不受外界的伤害，保持植物的健康生长。

此外，孩子们还了解到黄瓜的叶片能够吸收养分，进行光合作用。

番茄“驾”到

在观察番茄苗过程中，孩子们开始了一系列的提问。

【观察与提问】

“观察番茄苗，你有哪些新发现呢？”

我的植物塌下来了！

我的番茄苗发芽了！

我有一棵小苗断了，不知道怎么回事？

我的小苗长了黄叶，需要赶紧修剪，还有一棵断了。

有可能植物太高了。

赵老师：植物越往上长，上面承重的压力过大，所以太重了就会怎么样？

All：塌下来！

赵老师：想想黄瓜苗，我们是如何帮助它继续向上生长呢？

Annie：用竹竿支持。

赵老师：虽然都是小苗断了，但是断的原因不一样。一种可能是人为可能不小心弄断了，还有一种可能是叶子枯萎掉落哦。

老师认真地回答每个问题，鼓励孩子们提出更多的问题。

通过观察和提问，孩子们不仅仅是在了解植物的生长过程，更是在培养自己的好奇心和探索精神。

The Little Farm programme is a special feature of the LWS kindergarten. Through hands-on planting and careful care, the LWS children not only learn about the characteristics and growth cycles of different plants, but also the mystery of life.

LStrawberries

In the small farm at the kindergarten, the LWS babies carefully planted a tiny strawberry. They carefully dug the hole, filled the soil, watered it and carefully buried the strawberry seedlings in the soil.

For the next few days, the LWS babies came to the small farm every day to observe the changes in the growth of the strawberries.

They watched as the tiny seedling stems slowly grew taller, as the tiny leaves became greener and greener, and as the strawberry petals bloomed one by one. As time passed, the moment the LWS babies had been waiting for - the strawberries were blooming! The LWS babies gathered excitedly around the strawberry seedlings, gently touching the petals with their little hands and curiously asking their teacher: "Why do strawberries bloom? "

The teacher smiled and told them that when the strawberry flowers bloomed, they would produce a tiny fruit, which would be our favourite strawberry. As they listened, the Mego babies all stared at the tiny buds in unison, looking forward to them opening up soon so they could taste the delicious strawberries.

Cucumbers

In the gardening class on soil grown cucumbers, the children learned about the role of cucumber leaves, leaf hairs and bamboo sticks through observation and hands-on work. The teacher demonstrated to the children the role of the cucumber leaf hairs, i.e. to protect the plant.

By looking at the leaf hairs of the cucumber, the children learned that they defend the plant from external damage and keep it healthy. In addition, the children learned that the leaves of cucumbers absorb nutrients and carry out photosynthesis.

Tomatoes

During the observation of the tomato seedlings, the children began a series of questions.

"What new things have you discovered from observing the tomato seedlings?"

Jasmine:My plant collapsed!

Annie:Maybe the plant is too tall.

Mr. Zhao: The higher the plant grows, the more pressure it has to bear on it, so what happens when it gets too heavy?

All: It collapses

Mr. Zhao:Think about a cucumber seedling, how do we help it to grow upwards?

Annie: Support with bamboo poles

Gordon:My tomato seedling sprouted

Aiden: One of my seedlings has broken off, I don"t know what happened?

Carena: My seedling has yellow leaves and needs to be pruned quickly. I also have a seedling that has broken off.

Mr Zhao: Although both seedlings are broken, the reason for the breakage is different. One possibility is that someone may have broken it accidentally, and another is that the leaves have wilted and fallen off.

The teacher answered each question carefully and encouraged the children to ask more questions. By observing and asking questions, the children are not only learning about the growth process of plants, but also developing their curiosity and spirit of exploration.

Write at the end

LWS Kindergarten"s Little Farm programme is still going strong, with life education still to come ......

At LWS Kindergarten, the Little Farm programme is just one of many diverse programmes. LWS Kindergarten focuses on allowing children to grow in diversity, science and uniqueness, so that each child can find their own interests and develop their own direction.

The developmental goals of Art and Design Expression at EYFS are to help young children explore and develop their creativity, to perceive and understand visual elements such as colour, shape, texture, space and form, and to develop their powers of observation, concentration and expression. Teaching in this area promotes an appreciation of the aesthetic understanding of art and the ability to express and share their feelings, ideas and experiences.

On May 20, let"s swim with your child in a world of dazzling colours and continue to create colourful dreams with deft hands! Parents are welcome to visit and explore the infinite possibilities of their child"s growth together.
