Exploring Plant Stories

Posted at 4:26 pm under Argus

 

Sascha and her bee story.

Friends work on plant stories. The pastels are rich in color and smooth to write with!
Aidan reads the question to friends who come by. “What stories live inside plants?”

This morning, a large group of friends explored storytelling about plants through the use of pastels. The stories are a wonderful reflection of some of our learning about gardens and growth. Sascha and Aidan also chose to incorporate bees into their plant stories and had some interesting ideas about what bees do with flowers. This hopefully leads to an investigation!

The creation of the greenhouse!

We were also lucky enough to be given a mini greenhouse by a friend of the classroom. This morning, Messi, Da’Sean and Monica worked with our Butler friends to put it together. They even planted four different plants- carrots, eggplants, tomatoes, and onions- yum! Hopefully, the greenhouse gets the germination process started and we can eventually transplant the veggies to our actual garden.

We get a visit from some special friends- Butler Blue 2 and Butler Blue 3- Trip!
