Today's class was all about flowers. The students learned the parts of a flower and each part's purpose. They learned that the anther produces pollen. The color of the petals attracts pollinators, who help transfer the pollen to the stigma, where it travels downs to the ovary to produce seeds. The young gardeners dissected different flowers to see the parts. Here are Trevor, Reilly and Tyler dissecting flowers.
After dissecting their flowers, the students got to make flowers out of colorful tape and straws. The results were beautiful flowers. Here the young gardeners are showing off their creations!
The students checked the soil experiments they started last week. They mixed different soil types together with water in olive jars and let them settle. Today they could see the different layers.
