Today was an exciting day in Kindergarten!! We took off on our field trip to the Floral Conservatory where we met Joanne, our guide. She was a wealth of knowledge, who sparked our excitement for all the changes that we see in Spring! We learned about many different plants and everything that the plants may do for us. From trees to hyson she taught us their purpose. The Kinders had the opportunity afterwards to plant their very own oregano plant! Joanne taught us that if we pick some of the oregano leaves off our plant, dry them out and then crush them up, they are a delicious herb to supplement a pizza or spaghetti sauce!
Next we split off into groups and explored the conservatory! Here the Kinders had the opportunity to exercise multiple senses by seeing, smelling, hearing, and feeling the beautiful plants. The conservatory had a plethora of different displays including a desert and rainforest area! In the desert display, the Kinders were surprised to know that the plants did not need soil or a lot of water! Check out our videos of our days adventure:
