Plant Unit

We started our plant unit in science this week, which ties in perfectly with our reading-science integration Unit 6: Life All Around! 

We have been learning about the parts of plants, their functions, the needs of plants, and how they grow.  As an experiment, each student is growing his/her own lima bean plant!  This is one of my favorite things every year- the kids really get into it.  Enjoy our pictures and a couple of videos we've watched!

Taking data/making observations

All done and hanging! We will get these down from time to time to complete more observations.
