We had a special visitor this week. Carson's grandmother came on Wednesday to share some information with us about seeds.
She brought in some flower and vegetable plants that had grown from seed. and then showed us what those seeds looked like and what was inside the seed shell.
A beautiful resource book was shared by Carson's grandmother and we enjoyed telling her all that we knew about what a seed needs to grow.
Ask your child to tell you three things that a seed needs.
We made some lovely art using flowers as our inspiration.
We cut photos from magazines and glued them to paper.
Using both real and artificial blossoms as a reference, we drew our own flower designs with markers.
We glued different petal shapes to form some abstract flowers.
Part art and part math, we sequenced the steps to show how a seed grows into a flower.
We even tasted seeds! Two kinds of sunflower seeds. Ask your child if they liked them.
We sorted many different types of seeds. Some looked familiar (corn, beans, peas).
