English version

The 4th grade students continue working in the vegetable garden. We have added good soil to all the parts we have, and when we add soil we always mix it with the soil that was already there using the rake and shovel. To prepare the soil for planting, we have pulled out all the weeds and other plants that were there, a very necessary job. We have planted carrots, calçots (which is a type of long onion), broccoli, lettuce and turnips. We have watered it for a few days, but we think we should water it more often. We are excited when we go to the garden during English lessons. We have learned a lot of vocabulary and phrases to explain what we do. The dossier we have finished has been very practical and has taught us many things. One very important thing has been knowing which insects and animals are beneficial for the garden (such as worms or ladybirds) and which ones are not of interest because they eat leaves (such as snails or birds).

L’alumnat de 4t de primària continua treballant a l’hort. Hem afegit terra bona a totes les parts que tenim, i quan afegim terra sempre la barregem amb la terra que ja hi havia tot fent servir el rasclet i la pala. Per preparar el terra per plantar, hem arrencat totes les males herbes i altres plantes que hi havia, una feina molt necessària. Hem plantat pastanagues, calçots (que és un tipus de ceba llarg), bròquils, enciams i naps. Hem regat alguns dies, però creiem que caldria regar més sovint. Estem il·lusionats quan anem a l’hort a les hores d’anglès. Hem après molt de vocabulari i frases per explicar el que fem. El dossier que hem acabat ha estat molt pràctic i ens ha ensenyat moltes coses. Una de molt important ha estat saber quins insectes i animals són beneficiosos per l’hort (com els cucs o les marietes) i quins no interessen perquè mengen fulles (com per exemple els cargols o els ocells).
