While Mrs. Ayesha Amin told the class 8 students about Mr. Grasshopper
and Mr. Ant, Mr. Anis Ahmed continued to help them with their school
garden. 'We’ve planted for the future,' he told them. 'Here in
Bangladesh, we've three kinds of vegetables, summer, winter and all
season. It was between winter and summer when I gave you the seeds and
seedlings, so we've planted all season vegetables. Look, I'll show them
to you.'
Mr. Ahmed showed the students his all season vegetable chart. 'Look here's black colocasia. It has big green leaves and a white root.' 'Can we eat the leaves?' asked Rina. 'No', replied Mr. Ahmed. 'Only the root. Now this is an eggplant. It's also called a Brinjal. It has two names and as you can see, it'd quite large. And this is red amaranth and this one is green amaranth. As you can see, the green one's much taller and the leaves are a bit larger too. And this long vegetable is called okra and it's green.'
Mr. Ahmed's seeds and seedlings were so good and the soil so fertile that the vegetables grew very well. The students saw all their lovely vegetables, as well as some colourful flowers, growing well in their school garden. When they saw the beautiful garden, they were very happy and watered and weeded it regularly.
