Making lawns

Today we began our plant study in science!  During the next six weeks we will be observing lots of different types of plants, growing plants, and learning about plants in our classroom and community!  Today we planted grass.  It's a common plant found all over our community - yet we weren't quite sure how it grew - especially after it was mowed.  This week we'll be observing our grass and then mowing it as it grows.

We planted two types of seeds - alfalfa and rye - which are both grasses - and watered them.  Stay tuned to see how it our growing and mowing goes!
