Wednesday's Science

Luke brought a tomato. We talked about how some people think that it is a fruit and some call it a vegetable. In the old days, people thought tomatoes were poison and were called sweet apples. They were only used for decoration. Grace brought some hickory nuts. We might cut open some vegetables today to see what's inside. Yesterday we observed our Brassica plants. Some Brassica plants were a little different in color. Some have sprouted and some have stems and leaves. Most of them are growing Some of the leaves still had a seed shell on it. When we were observing our plants, we also compared them to others. Tomorrow we probably won't talk about science.

It sounds like everyone is excited about science. It is great to have so many enthusiastic plant scientists in your room. Emily's dad works with plant science everyday. He is still learning new things about plants everyday, too.
