Last week, we read a story called A Seed is Planted<\/em>. This is the story of one child who starts a chain of giving by creating a small clipping of a sapling. The children were engrossed with the idea of how just one seed turned into many. We read it again today and\u00a0together, we created cuttings of several plants in our own room. Carriea then suggested something special.<\/p>\n

We can take a plant and give it to other people and it might grow! Carriea<\/p>\n

We can take it and break it in half like in the book and keep doing the same thing over and over again. Aidan<\/p>\n

The one seed is going to grow a lot, and we made another one. Messi<\/p>\n

Their buckets are going to explode! Angela<\/p>\n

It feels good to fill buckets. Carriea<\/p>\n

During writer’s workshop, Monica created a book called, All About Planting\u00a0a Garden. Inside, the story read, “To plant a garden, you need to get seeds, water, and sunlight.\u00a0And when the plant is done growing, you can\u00a0give it to somebody. And the flower is bright like the sun.” After sharing, Michael exclaimed, “It’s just like\u00a0A Seed is Planted<\/em>!” \u00a0<\/p>\n

Later this afternoon, we decided to put Carriea’s idea into action. We went down to the preschool room and shared our story and cutting with them. The kids remarked how good it felt to share our\u00a0plant with the preschool. It was also a nice way to reflect on some of our newly learned knowledge of how to take care of the plant and answer some of the preschooler’s questions about plant growth in general.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
