Junior Kindergarten at PES is all about bringing learning to life! During our plant unit, our students are able to see, touch, and even taste plants they’ve grown themselves. Earlier this year, students planted sugar snap pea seeds and watched them sprout. Now, they’ve moved those sprouts into our class garden, where they’ll keep an eye on their growth and, with a little patience, get to taste the peas they planted. It’s a joyful way for them to build skills in science, math, and observation, all while feeding their natural curiosity.
