📖 Reading Passage: The School Garden

Read the passage carefully, then answer the questions below.

Mrs Chen's Year 4 class decided to create a vegetable garden behind their school. The students were excited to grow their own food. They planted carrots, lettuce, tomatoes, and beans in neat rows.

Every morning, the children took turns watering the plants. They also pulled out weeds that tried to steal nutrients from their vegetables. After three months of hard work, the garden was flourishing. The bright red tomatoes hung heavy on their vines, and the lettuce leaves were crisp and green.

When harvest time arrived, the class picked all their vegetables. They used them to make a delicious salad for lunch. "This tastes so much better than shop-bought vegetables!" said Emma, crunching on a fresh carrot. The students felt proud of what they had achieved together.
