MINIMUM OF ONE PARAGRAPH (4-5 sentences) EX: This year I learned to plant and grow vegetables in our garden. I got to plant carrots, potatoes, sweet corn, and green beans. I was really excited about the sweet corn because it is my favorite vegetable! Some of the hot days I had to be sure to go out and water the garden. I think I met my goal of learning to plant and care for vegetables. I liked showing my vegetables at the Fair the best. Next year I hope to plant some different things in my garden and might try strawberries.
