We just started a new chapter in science! We are learning about plants. In between learning about things like photosynthesis and pollination, we are also learning about the different parts of plants. What better way to learn about them than to eat them!
Monday we ate some seeds. Would you like to know what kind? They were yellow, but after we applied some heat, they became white and fluffy! That’s right, we had some delicious popcorn. We were able to very clearly see the seed coats after we finished, because they fell to the bottom of the bowl.
Tuesday we had stems and leaves to drink. Sugar cane stems and tea leaves, that is. The students were super excited to be trying yet another part of plants.
Tomorrow we will be having roots for an afternoon snack. What do you suppose they will be? Ask your student if you’d like to find out!
