My planting project!

My planting project!

Kia ora bloggers! during lockdown I did a planting project. What made me do planting? well, my mum has lots of seeds she saves from fruits and vegetables that we like and then we plant them. In this blog post I am going to show you how I planted them!


First of all my mum. got some chilli, kaffir lime, and papaya seeds that she saved from those fruits. My mum went out to the front yard to get a new bag of soil to plant out seeds in. When we got inside she opened the bag of soil. My mum saves a lot of jelly cups and old egg cartons so that we can use then for when she needs to plant seeds in. I had 2 large egg cartons and 7 jelly cups. We had to heat up a nail and make some holes so that the water could drain at the bottom of the jelly cup.


 I put on my gardening gloves and used a jelly cup to put soil into another jelly cup one at a time. After the jelly cups I got to add some soil to the egg cartons and then spread it out. We did not fill the cups and cartons way to the top because we needed to put some soil on top after the seeds were planted. Soon, then we started sprinkling some seeds on the egg cartons and put some more seeds in the jelly cup.


We put 2 seeds in some jelly cups and 3 in the other jelly cups then we put the soil over it. We also put soil over the egg cartons and gently tapped it on top to make sure it was all set and ready to be watered. Our small laundry is a hot place so we put the egg cartons and jelly cups in there. 


I had to go down the the garage to get my watering can, about 3 minutes later I finally found it because it was hard to look for. Then my mum filled it up with water and then I got to water the soil. I will keep you updated on when the seeds start to sprout! See you next time bloggers!

What I enjoyed about learning in lockdown.

 Kia ora again bloggers! In this post I am going to share about what I have enjoyed about learning in lockdown. Nothing has changed yet and everything is fine at the moment.


What I enjoyed, I enjoyed  learning a little bit in lockdown because I don't need to do all kind's of work I can just write a blog post, reading writing, maths and some other activities for the morning not the whole day which is what I mostly enjoy about learning in lockdown.


What I don't enjoy, I really hate sitting in my chair and doing some work because I don't like sitting in one place for a long time but at least I get to learn about marine reserves because we are going on a trip to goat island! I can't wait to go to goat island again and also go to Mangawhai which will be really cool! I am super excited for that.


Anyways bloggers, I don't have anything much to write about so I will see you later! bye bloggers.
