Life Cycle of Plants

After Spring Break we began studying the life cycles of plants.  In the next couple of weeks we'll be doing a few fun experiments.  This week we planted several different kinds of sprouts which we'll eat early next week.  Below are a couple of things that I'd like students to bring in if they have a chance.  We don't need each student to have one though.

Coniferous Cones
Monday, April 8
We will be looking more closely at coniferous cones next week.  Any kind of cone will work and if there are three or four they can find that'd be great too.

Flowers
Monday, April 15
I pushed back the investigation of flowers a little bit this year with the cold weather.  Hopefully, we'll get some warmer weather and some spring flowers by April 15.  We pull apart these flowers to see what parts are inside, so they obviously won't be coming home.
