Happy Mother's Day!

For our latest Science unit we've been discussing the life cycles of plants and animals and decided to do a little planting of our own!

Mrs. Menzies worked with each student to go through the planting process. After the initial planting was done, we did a little procedural writing about the steps you'd need to follow when planting. Then, we watched as our plants grew over the next few weeks and recorded our observations in our science booklets and through a lot of oral discussions.

The plants were transplanted into individual pots and sent home as a lovely gift for Mother's Day! (I forgot to take a picture of the pots after Mrs. Menzies' wonderful wrapping job!)

Hopefully soon, you'll have some beautiful marigold flowers blooming!

Happy Mother's Day!
