Swiss Chard Harvest



Today we worked on our Social Studies and Science standards by harvesting Swiss chard in the school garden at Morris Farm.  The class was providing a service to the school by reaping the chard for tomorrow's lunch.  We learned more about the parts of a plant (especially the parts we eat) when we were shown how to take the chard from the garden by Miss Abby, our farm to school coordinator.  When we returned to the classroom the kids enjoyed using crayons and watercolors to create a picture of Swiss chard.
