11/2

This week students spent their time learning a little bit more about plants that reproduce using seeds (angiosperms and gymnosperms) and the importance of their structures.  Students completed an observation lab where they were able to view various seeds and seed pods.  Here they hypothesized how the seeds could be dispersed (wind, animals, water, etc.). With the knowledge they learned from this lab, we focused in on wind dispersal seeds solely.  Over the past two days students have been designing and building their own wind dispersal seed (with its' own sporphyte too!). When we come back from the long weekend, each group will test their seeds and will be able to analyze the data.
Have a great weekend!
