Garden Visit on the First Day of Autumn

We took a visit to the Crest View garden on the first day of Fall to see what is still happening out there. We saw lots of things still growing and blooming! In their science notebooks, the class sketched things they saw. It was a lovely afternoon to be outside in our garden classroom!
