FIRST GRADE FIELD TRIP TO THE NEW YORK BOTANICAL GARDEN

Our two First Grade classes, 1-101 and 1-103, visited The New York Botanical Garden on Friday, April 27. Students in both classes attended a hands-on workshop on pollination in the Everett Children’s Garden. They learned the life cycle of a bean and parts of a flower, and also took apart a flower to identify its parts. Then they planted a bean, which they were allowed to take home in its pot.
