Ms. Erin R.'s Class is Growing Sunflowers!

In the last month or so my friends and I have been talking about farms and farmers. We have spent a lot of time talking about plants as well. We know that plants need sun, water, and food to grow. We also know that flowers have roots, a stem, leaves, seeds and a flower. A couple of weeks ago we planted sunflower seeds, with everyone having their own flower. After planting them in plastic cups in the art room, we placed our cups by the window, allowing them to receive sunlight. Over the last two weeks we have been watching them grow. Everyone was very excited when sprouts of green first started to appear. So far everyone's flowers have made it above the dirt. We are all anxiously waiting to see the flowers!
