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.
