Our 5th grade classes are diving into plants! We have begun with seed and plant parts and will continue our work next week discussing the definitions of each plant and seed part as well as its function. We are hoping for better weather next week so we can use our outdoor classroom as well as other areas of campus. Since each plant is unique we will be examining MANY different types to get a great perspective on growth and life.
This weekend, please work with your student to look at the different types of plants and trees around your home and help them make a mental list for discussion about the observations that you all make about the leaves, trunks, stems, and possibly roots of each.
Have a great weekend!
