Garden Club - Parts of a Plant

This week the Garden Club learned about ...
A plant is made up of 6 parts:  seed, root, stem, leaf, flower, fruit
The students did an activity to help them visualize the lesson better.  The project included each student making their own plant out of vegetables that symbolized the 6 parts of a plant.  After they created their own unique plant art they then chopped up the veggies and had salad for an afternoon snack!
Seed - Green Beans / Peas
Root - Carrots
Stem - Celery
Leaf - Mixed Greens
Flower - Broccoli and Cauliflower
Fruit - Cherry Tomatoes
