Seed Hike - Science Room News

This past week, I learned that Kindergarten students have been interested in learning about seeds.  So we headed out on a seed "treasure" hike with each class!  Since the trees and flowers are making seeds now, fall is the perfect time to discover all kinds of seeds.  The students found acorns, pine cones, berries, chestnuts, maple seeds, sweet gum and sycamore balls, just to name a few.  We decided to take a look at the seeds under a microscope to see if we could learn more about them.  So we'll be learning about microscopes next in science class!
