Harvesting the Three Sisters Garden

Field Trips this week...

This is a reminder that field trip permission slips are due asap for our Seed Hike and All School Hike this week.

Our class is reading Charlotte's Web by E.B. White.  This week, Charlotte stopped by to listen to her story.

Parts of a Seed

Students have been studying the parts of a seed, how seeds grow,and how seeds travel. They have been dissecting seeds to find the parts of a seed.  This is an up close photograph of the inside of a bean captured by a mini microscope camera borrowed from Mr. Butler.  We then labeled the parts as a class on the smartboard. 

Here is a photograph from the microscope of one of our Sister Green Beans from our SME 2nd Grade Garden. The seed coat is not in this photograph.
