    A Life Cycle of Plants

    As I plan ahead, I will be starting this craft for Earth day and taken home for mothers day. Students will be able to explain and a life cycle, and gift it to continue the care and responsibility which it entails. So excited to begin to document and journal our findings.

    Great Addition to Plant Study

    I loved this step-up from the traditional planting of seeds. We did this as a culminating activity to our plants and seeds unit and my students loved it! After watching our grass grow in our classroom, the students were so excited to take their Grass Houses home to share with their families.

    Lovely Yards

    I loved using this plant life cycle activity with my students. It not only got us out of the classroom and into the great outdoors, but it allowed them to quickly see the whole process of plant growth. They loved looking at the bottom of their containers and seeing the roots in plain view. After about 3 weeks they took these home and they had beautiful little yards of their own…so fun! Thank you for creating the perfect addition to my plant unit!

    Love this!

    Planting in itself is pretty cool. BUT when you get to water your own lawn – AWESOME!
