Aldridge Gardens

Our class had a fantastic time at Aldridge Gardens at our first field trip of the year.  Students observed different ways to plant (called propogation), planted their own plants using these ways (division, seed, and off-shoot), and went on a plant scavenger hunt!  Enjoy the pictures from our trip!

 

Plants!

We have had some fun these past couple of weeks learning about plants! Students have done a scavenger hunt, looked at the inside of seeds, and started growing their own fast-growing plants!
