Plant Parts in the Science Lab

    Mrs. Riggins used a dried sunflower middle to show us where the seeds are held. Then we examined the plants on our tables and discuss the parts of our plants and their purposes. Then students illustrated and labeled the plant parts in their science journals. Mrs. Riggins took the students who finished their journal entry early outside to look at the parts of the plants in our garden.

    Mrs. Riggins helped us plant and water grass seeds.

Plant Needs

    We watched a Discovery Streaming Video about plants and their needs. Then we discussed with our partner what plants need and why.

   
    Then students illustrated and labeled plant needs.

Texas

We learned about Texas symbols. We colored and wrote about our state bird the mocking bird.

We created a bluebonnet, labeld the parts and wrote about the function of the parts.

We learned about cowboys' clothing and how it meets their needs. Then we colored and labeled his clothing.

We learned about the state motto Friendship and wrote about being a good friend!

We learned drew a pecan tree and how it's needs are met. then we labeled.

We created positional patterns using "Texas" shapes!

We read The Little Red Hen  and Armadilly Chili. Then we compare/contrasted the two stories. We also made chili and graphed if we liked it.
