This is one of my favorites. It tells you what to talk about seeds for different grade levels and how to approach it . There are experiment ideas and the core standards are provided for it. If in doubt about how to conduct the experiment or how to expand after wards, there are many ideas in this. Younger kids can plant their seed and watch it grow. While older kids get to compare the seeds environment. At this rate, the kids will have consumed enough information on seeds at a younger age to know the comparisons. Really good resource to use during the spring time leading up to mothers day even .Growing plants can be super fun and exciting. You become excited to watch it transform from a seed to a beautiful plant or flower. Easily can also be compared to how human growth is.

This particular article deals strictly with seeds. The first book is about seeds growing but the second is a photography collection of different seeds. The PreK to 2 grade level activity is one in which children soak seed and look inside them. They then discuss what it means to be alive or not. Seeds are then planted and growth is watched. The second activity called “Comparing Seed Environments” for grades 3 through 6 allows students to discover that multiple factors affect seed germination and sprout growth. Both look like excellent activities.
