Stems

Observation of Stems

Every week we pick a different part of a flower or plant seed,stem,grass blades etc... I have each one set up for a total of a week. The children in our home form there own observation & compare the plants that we've gathered together or that I have set out for them.

I DO NOT drill into them all the parts or scientific words, at this age it's a Stem that provides "LIFE" to the plant. They'll typically converse together and ask questions on there own, it is at that point I will answer.

When their friends come over they're happy to express there new found knowledge.

Nature

Our Life,Our Planet,Our Home

IF we teach our children about NATURE and that all around us is "LIFE".It is in this teaching they will have a GREATER respect for our precious planet "EARTH".
