Harvesting The Garden

Our students got their hands dirty. When we were caring for our plants the learning moments were multiplied. The questions the kids asked were focused and led to many discussions about the science. One 4th grade student asked me, "How does the water get into the plant?" I told her that to understand that she needed to learn about the cell." A couple of days later she brought in two pictures of cell diagrams that she had researched on her own.
