The students were learning about the basic structure of a tree. They began learning about how trees drink water! The grade 1’s loved seeing a visual of how trees and plants drink water through pieces celery absorbing water through the holes on the bottom of the branch. Students predicted what would happen if we left the celery in the water for a few days. They drew photos of what the celery looked like when we first put each branch in the water and compared it to a few days later! Such a great experience.
