Fascinating Sunflower Sprouts

When planting sunflower seeds, one of the children wanted to do it on his own. 

He got a white plastic bottle from the recyclables shelf, added some dirt, a couple of sunflower seeds, water and took it outside to put it in the sun. 

Such independence. Such initiative. 

It was fascinating to see that different children were interested in different aspects of the process.

Yarn Trap

There was a lot of sharing of ideas, problem solving, and use of the positional language "over" and "under" and "around".
