The toddlers celebrated Earth Day this April by creating headbands and sorting trash versus recycling. We also have sorted flowers, talked about the parts of a flower, created a name garden, painted bottle print flowers, and planted seeds. To round out our unit the toddlers painted a flower picture to put on the back of a special gift for Mother’s Day.
In preschool prep we have been learning all about seeds! Specifically, how they grow and what they need to grow into beautiful plants. We have planted pumpkin, corn, green bean, sugar snap pea and radish seeds! We are seeing the changes first hand. Each vegetable plant has sprouted and is continuing to grow as we take care of them.
Each child also planted their own grass seed in a plastic cup. We added silly pictures of each student to the outside of their cup. With the grass growing on top, it looks like they are growing green hair!
The Kprep class has been learning about the parts of a plant, the plant life cycle, what a plant needs to survive and how to grow our very own plant! The students have made individual “Green house’s” and have planted their very own grass seed! We added some crazy faces to our cups so that when grass grows, it will look like our hair!
We are excited to see some results!
