We are so excited to learn about plant and animal life cycles, and patterns in plants and animals. We started our new unit on Earth Science by taking a field trip to the WHES garden to observe the many kinds of life in the garden.
First we observed in the garden.

The buddleia attracts pollinators, especially butterflies! |
|
The jasmine arbor is in bloom! |
|
The peach tree has flowered! |
|
The lemons are really flavorful! |
|
The peppers are fiery hot! |
|
This is a type of bean . . . . |
|
. . .with super big pods! |
|
Sweet peas! |
|
Raspberries! |
|
Banana, banana! |
|
Not sure, anyone know out there? |
|
A pollinator, a little ladybug! |
|
Not sure, anyone know? |
|
We got lots of . . . . |
|
collard greens! |
|
The potato vine. |
Next, we got a chance to use our senses to observe the plants up close.
Then we wrote a main idea sentence:
In the morning, all of first grade went to the school garden to observe plants.
Last we labeled all the plants to learn their names.
