Gigantic Sunflowers!

All week, we have been reading the big book, The Sunflower Tree by Elizabeth Pulford. 
This book is about Mr. Potter who grows a gigantic sunflower tree that grows, grows, GROWS!  



STEM:  The children were challenged to build the tallest sunflower tree out of play-doh, pipe cleaners and Fruit Loops!

Science:  We also fermented our own seeds and grew them in plastic baggies. The children could choose from bean seeds, pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds. 


Art:  We studied Vincent van Gogh and created our own sunflowers that came to life! We even used actual seeds!
