I finally got all of the materials together and the second grade planted marigolds. Marigolds are important in India as they are used to create garlands that decorate religious statues, temples and for people at funerals , weddings and other special occasions.
The kids saved their milk continers and we cut them down. The kids counted their seeds and predicted how many flowers they would get. Each day a "gardener of the Day" is going to water the classes plants and record the number of plants that show growth. The students are also creating their own journals and artwork to accompany this science unit.
