Library Learning Patch-Dicots and Monocots

Have I mentioned that our library has a great children's section? It is a nice environment in which children can sit, relax and read!   And to have classes.

History tells us that Columbus brought cucumbers to America
We also  learned that flowering plants are divided into two classifications--dicots and monocots. We learned that you can identify them by both the leaf and root system. The group did leaf rubbings and looked at plants.

This is more difficult than it looks!

Hot and dirty work!

Finally-the reward--harvesting lettuce, radishes and onions! A nice salad for tonight.
