Nature and Biodiversity : Gr 1 : planting beans

The Grade 1's have a theme based on fairy tales this term. One of the books they read was :

Mrs Maurice and Mrs McToal decided that it would be a good idea to plant a bean and watch how it grew. First a chart was shown and the different stages of the growth of a plant was discussed.

There was great excitement as they went about planting their beans....

A few weeks later ..... a beanstalk emerged!

Each child went home to plant their seedling. Hopefully they had a magic bean too! We will just have to wait and see!
