Plants and Garderning

 

Plants and Gardening

Pre k is learning all about plants and gardens.   We planted eggplant seeds  for the  community garden.  

This week we put a lima bean in a Ziplock bag and were observing it to see what will happen. We talked about the parts of the plants and labeled them as we made a flower.  The vocabulary words for our theme were stem, leaves, flowers, and seeds. All plants have these parts. Also, we leaned that plants need air, water, sun, and soil to live. 

During our science discovery  we observed celery stalks. We looked at the stem and leaves. Then we predicted what will happen if we put celery stalks in different colored water. We said that it will grow, the leaves are going change colors, and it float.
