Science Lesson About Plants

In science, we discussed living and non-living.  Then we talked about the parts of a plant and the needs of plants. In the afternoon, we went outdoors to look at real plants.  We discussed the difference between trees and other plants.  We compared leaves, roots and stems. They enjoyed pulling up plants. Then they used chalk to show me if they could draw a plant showing all the parts.  I thought this was a good introduction to plants.  These young students were very interested in the lesson.
