Digging in to Science!

Our class is digging deep into our first science unit, and I'm incredibly excited about the amazing questions, and wonderful curiosity of the group!  A question that came up after a conversation of Living and Non-Living Things was - Can humans live without the Sun?  Great question!  (which led to lively and smart conversation)  As we dig into "Structures and Functions" of living things, today we dissected flowers to see first hand the parts of a plant that help it survive.  Great fun!  We'll be planting some seeds in our Grow Lab, including experimenting with seeds harvested from our flowers today!  Thank you Mrs. Davis and Paquette's Nursery for the flower donations!
