Cucumber
First Steps :
1. Dig a 5cm deep hole in the soil
2. Fill it with water
3. Plant the little cucumber plant
4. Tie the plant to a stick to let it grow up straight
5. Place a bag around the plant to protect it from too much sunlight
6. Water it everyday except on rainy days

Communication
Negotiate ideas and knowledge with peers and teachers :
Since my grandmother was farming for her whole life she knows a lot about it so she taught me how to plant cucumbers and how to keep them alive.

Thinking
Identify trends and forecasts :
I put a taller stick next to the plant so that it can grow onto it.
Those old leaves I put around the plant have multiple functions :
- They protect the cucumber plant from over-drying
- they stop other plants to grow next to the plant (other plants will take the water and minerals from the soil)
- they turn into soil
