This week we read a story about plants in class. The kids learned about how plants start out as a seed then grow into a flowering plant. They then created "how a plant grows" charts which they individually wrote and illustrated-they had a lot of fun! This was the introduction to the plants unit that the kids will be learning about for the remainder of the year in science, which was originally introduced wholly by Ashley, Emily and I with the Five Senses and Living vs. Non-living lessons. The kids seem to understand and enjoy the plants unit so far a great deal and will enjoy the hand on and outdoor activities that will follow for the remainder of the semester.
