Bean Diary: Week 1

As part of our learning over the next few weeks, we will be making a ‘bean diary’ where we will record how the plant has changed each week. If you had a go at planting runner beans at home, you are welcome to draw your own plant in your bean diary!

You will need paper, a pencil and some coloured pencils.

Have a look at the picture of the runner bean. What does it look like? Can you draw the bean in ‘week 1’ of your bean diary?

Charlie challenge: can you think of a word to describe the bean? Have a go at writing the initial sound next to your picture (for example, ‘s’ for small).

Please upload a picture of your runner bean diary to Tapestry and come back next week for an update on Miss Wright’s runner bean plant!

Plant a magic bean with Miss Wright

Hello everybody!

Our new words for this week are ‘grow’ and ‘planting.’ I had a go at planting my own bean like Jasper the cat! This means that I have put the bean in some soil so that it can grow. Can you have a go at planting your own bean?

You will need:
– runner bean seeds
– a small plant pot
– soil
– a garden tool for scooping (a tablespoon or cup also work fine!)

Make sure you keep your pot in a sunny spot and water the bean every day. This will help it to grow!

Don’t worry if you can’t plant your own bean at home, as I will be posting a picture of my bean plant every week.

Happy planting!
From Miss Wright 🙂
