Plant Exploration

Students prepare a ‘plant part salad’ before exploring “Plant City.” They will choose three ‘neighborhoods’ to visit and discover how plants use their parts to adapt to where they live. Students receive passports, dissect cattails, sort seeds, and plant new life!
Colorado Standards Addressed include: using basic scientific tools, investigating different habitats, and the ways temperature, sun, and shade influence habitat.
All learning is geared toward being inquiry-based and hands-on!
