Parts of the Flower

Yesterday we went outside for science. The grade 3's were looking for flowers and roots that we will need to examine for our science unit. The Grade 4's were also exploring all the small communities of plants and animals that make up a particular habitat. Today the grade 3's took a closer look at the parts of the plants. We cut a cross section out of the flowers in order to expose the Pistil, Stamen, and other parts of the flower. I have pictures below--check out our junior scientists in action!
