FE FI FO FUM!!!

WE HAVE BEEN BUSY THIS WEEK LEARNING ALL ABOUT PLANTS.  WE TALKED ABOUT LIVING AND NON LIVING THINGS.  WE KNOW THAT ALL LIVING THINGS NEED WATER, AIR, FOOD, AND THE ABILITY TO MAKE MORE OF ITSELF.   WE DECIDED THAT A BEAN SEED WAS A LIVING THING AND WE WATCHED A VIDEO CLIP TO LEARN ABOUT THE LIFE CYCLE OF A BEAN.  WE BECAME SCIENTIST AND DISSECTED  A LIMA BEAN SEED.   WE FOUND THE SEED COAT FIRST AND EVERYONE THOUGHT IT FELT SLIMY.  NEXT, WE SAW THE BABY PLANT, AND THEN WE FOUND THE FOOD FOR THE SEED.
OUR STUDY OF A LIMA BEAN
                 PEELING OFF THE SEED COAT
TAKING A CLOSER LOOK
 
             FINDING THE STORED FOOD
 
I FOUND THE SEED COAT
                    BUSY SCIENTIST AT WORK!
THE BABY PLANT!
          EXAMINING LIMA BEAN SEEDS!
CAREFULLY REMOVING THE SEED COAT!
        THIS IS SCIENTIFIC WORK!
                      THIS FEELS A LITTLE SLIMY!
        I FOUND THE BABY PLANT!


        AND NOW IT WAS TIME FOR PLANTING!
 WE CAREFULLY MEASURED AND PLANTED AND WATERED 2 LIMA BEAN SEEDS IN A CUP!  WE ALSO ARE DOING AN EXPERIMENT TO SEE IF A BEAN SEED WILL GROW AND SPROUT INSIDE A PLASTIC BAG...
WE CAN'T WAIT FOR OUR BEAN SEEDS TO GROW!

OUR SPROUT HOUSES!
OUR SPROUT HOUSES ARE DECORATED AND READY FOR  BEAN SEEDS
WET COTTON BALLS AND SUNLIGHT...WILL THEY SPROUT AND GROW A BEAN PLANT?

 ~ FE ~ FI ~ FO ~ FUM ~
WE LOVED HEARING THE STORY, 
JACK AND THE BEANSTALK
AND NOW THERE'S SOME GIANTS IN OUR ROOM!

 WE'VE HAD A GREAT START LEARNING ABOUT SEEDS AND PLANTS THIS WEEK!
