More seeds and plants!

We were wondering what might be happening to the seeds in our seed cups now.   We conducted an experiment to see what might happen to a seed in a dark wet place.   Here is what we discovered.

We also wrote about plants.  Using our planning map, we wrote what plants can, have, and need.

We hung our writing up on the bulletin board outside our room along with a plant art project!

Poetry!

April is national poetry month.  Thank you to Mrs. G for coming in and sharing Runny Babbit by Shel Silverstein.  If you have a family favorite poem, we would love to hear it!

Scientists and seeds

We took some time to examine the seeds before we planted them.  We will be recording our observations of our plant cups.  Please stop back to see how things are growing!

Mental Images

This week we used poetry to help us create mental images. We read the poem, Umbrella, by        .  Then we drew what we pictured in our heads.  We talked about how our drawings were the same and how they were different. Here are some of the pictures.  Can you see some ways our mental images were the same?  How about how they were different?
