B
At school, students learn some different subjects in the classroom. These days, a new subject becomes popular. That is school gardening. Students learn it outside the classroom.
▲ Some teachers, however, are finding good ways to make it work. The school garden may be very small. However, students can have a lot of fun in it. At first, teachers decide what vegetables to grow. Then they grow them with students. It is nice for the students to get a tomato, wash it and eat it right in the garden, so tomatoes are their favourites.
Gardening is not only an interesting subject, but also a
practical subject. It teaches students a lot. Some vegetables are easy to grow, but others need a long time. This can teach students patience(耐心). In the garden, kids get to see a beginning, a middle and an end to their work. When working with others, they can also learn some teamwork skills.
Gardening is not just a hobby, but a life skill.
