Seeds

We are continuing our science unit by studying the life cycle of plants. We planted Brassica seeds and are charting the progress every day. We have read several books on the life cycle of pumpkins.

Brassica seeds are also called fast plants because they grow so fast.

We have read many books on pumpkins.
