Giving Project--------Marigold

Few weeks ago, my Sunday school called BGSG gave us a “Giving Project”. This project was for grade 1-3. The teacher gave us six seeds, some soil, and a plastic pot. When I went home, I put seeds into the soil. Everyday, I had to water it. After seven days, I saw two small pieces of leaves coming out from the soil. Three days later, all six seeds germinated. They were very small. I was supposed to water the plants every day. However, I was so busy that I forgot to water the plants sometimes. I put it in the basement. It had not enough sunlight. As a result, the plants grew slowly.
After two weeks, I need to take it back to church and sell it for money. The teacher would collect the money and give to a charity organization called “Urban Promise”. Then, the charity would use the money to serve the poor. I didn’t sell my plants to the people because I want to reserve it for myself. I want to watch my plant growing. So, my mom gave $5 to buy it back. I thank mom.
Now, I put the pot outside on the deck in order to get more sunlight and water. I saw the plant get a little bigger and stronger. I hope it grows up to have flowers soon.
I think this project is meaningful because we can help the poor and meet their needs. I learn how to grow plants. The plants need water and sunlight. Now, I get more experience. Our Sunday school teacher taught us to love each others through this project.
