Week Two

This week's topic was seeds and weeds. The kids looked at different kinds of seeds. They counted seeds of large and small fruits and vegetable. Meghan and Jack are sharing a lady bug magnifying glass to looks more closely at the seeds on a strawberry.

Luca makes an apple print dish clothe.

In this exercise the kids related the parts that their bodies have in common with a plant structure. Tess is our person plant. Here she and Roe demonstrate how feet are like roots because they anchor us to the ground, leave help a plant balance and catch all the delicious sun light. And some very vital body parts such as our head is like the head of a flower. Thanks Tess for being a fantastic volunteer for this lesson:)

A weed is considered a weed mostly when it is in the wrong place. We practice pulling weeds and the importance of getting the roots in the process. The fun was being able to water our sunflower seeds this week. Water on a hot day is always fun for everyone.
