Entry point
We started a week before our entry point, with slowly introducing flowers and plants. We learned parts of a plant, seeing and picking different flowers and leaves outside. We also had an activity of flower scents, we made flowers of old newspaper and dropped flower scents so that it will smell and looked like a real flower.
The second week we had our entry point, wesaw a short video of how to plant seeds and how to take care of it.
Today everyone got a small clay pot to plant their seeds in, they all one by one stood up to put soil in and add the seeds, some children needed help to water the plant. Overall it was a fun and educational entry point, and it’s an ongoing activity. We will take good care of our own plant and see it grow throughout the theme and in the end we each will take it home and continue the growth.
