We're growing . . .

We're working on a lot of really interesting things this week.

We made a mosaic of the sun.
We created a sun and earth to demonstrate how the earth rotates around the sun.
We learned about passive water movement.
We created an experiment that replicates the movement of water in a plants xylem.
We used water and chalk to make artwork.
We are making a rainbow of colored carnations.
We are going to make paper tomorrow, adding flower seeds so it can be planted and grown.
We are sorting, counting, and making estimations about bean seeds.
We are creating fun Mother's Day gifts.
We are planting seeds in transparent greenhouse bags to grow at home.

But the best moment of the week was this.

There's a lot of growing going on at Whole Child Preschool, and it's not just seeds.
