Seed Scientists

The weather has warmed up, and we are investigating seeds!  How do seeds travel?  What do seeds look like?  Which plant has which seed?  Why are seeds so different?  We explored these questions and more, as we began our first week of plant studies.

We learned that seeds are different, because it depends on how the seed can best be moved to a new growing location, away from the parent plant.  We guessed which seed belonged to which fruit/veggie, and then cut each open to find out if we were correct.  There were some surprises!  We also sampled the fruits and veggies.  We look forward to experimenting with variables that plants need to grow: light, soil, and water.  More fun to come!
