Gardening

 We had a special visitor this week.
Carson's Grandmother shared some information about seeds with us.










She showed us several different types of seeds and what was hidden inside the shells.








She also showed us the book, Seed Soil, Sun, which was full of beautiful photographs and interesting facts.
 Then we got a chance to start some seeds ourselves.



We'll check on them next Monday to see what's happened.
 Our artwork centered around the beautiful blossoms that we see everyday in our yards, fields, and florist shops.













We cut, glued, colored, and painted a variety of flower forms.
Our open-ended artwork made for some unique compositions.




Some of this lovely work is in our Memory Books that will be coming home next week.


We even tasted seeds!


Many of our friends tried both types of sunflower seeds and most of them liked the special snack.









We sequenced the growth cycle of a plant for our math experience. First, second, third, and last is pre-math experience and skill work.
 We were thrilled to play outside during the beautiful sunny days this week.
Everyone enjoyed the fresh air and room to run!
