iExperience: Gardening in LH1

Learner: Zsofia

Date: 01.03.17

Learning Area: LH1

Learning Coach: Priscilla Lavakula

Learning Observed:

Our school has a garden! As part of our iExperience, our habitat have been learning about gardening and what to plant in our garden. This is also for our community to use, the vegetables we have planted are for our community day at the end of the term. Our learners opted into different activities like: cleaning out the garden bed, putting soil down, cutting up stakes for the signs in our gardens and researching and finding out more about plants and recipes to use.

Key Competencies/ Vision Principles:
Zsofia showed her capability in decision making and opting in to designing and painting signs for the habitat garden. She worked collaboratively with others on one sign and making decisions around what their sign would look like. Zsofia showed curiosity about the different colours of paints and designs of the lettering.

Next Learning Steps:

I would recommend for Zsofia to work with other learners who she is not so familiar with and this would extend to her working collaboratively with others in the habitat.
