Science–We are focusing on plants and how to classify them. \u00a0We will also learn about various types of plant adaptations. \u00a0Be sure to ask your child about the experiment with seeds they did. \u00a0We planted three different kinds and determined if seeds need sun to germinate. \u00a0Students are observing how they grow.<\/p>\n
Enjoy your week!<\/p>\n
