R is for roots

At center time today the children made book tilted What do seeds need to grow?  On each page the sentence described one thing that seeds needed to grow.  The children then drew the object in as part of the illustration.  For example, on the page that said, "Seeds need sun to grow," the children drew a sun.  At an independent center the children used seeds and their creativity to make a mosaic.  Our song for the day was "Flowers, Stems, Leaves, and Roots," which we sang to the tune of "Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes."
