IT BLOOMED!


This morning I entered a classroom filled with children jumping up and down, brimming with excitement and chanting "It Bloomed, It Bloomed,  ...  The Amaryllis Bloomed!"

Alex' family gave an Amaryllis kit to our class.  The children were thrilled to plant the curious looking object and see what would happen.

We observed the plant and various children have taken turns writing entries in our Discovery Book.
Each morning the children celebrate the magic of God's hand as we watch the flower grow.

We have wondered about why there is colour in the stem and how it seems to be travelling up to the blossom.  We have counted how many leaves have sprouted and predicted how many days until it will be in full bloom.

Please enjoy some of the beautiful faces of your children wondering and investigating about our pretty Amaryllis.





Please enjoy a sample of the entries the children have recorded.
Amazing Work from Amazing Learners!
