Seeds

We started investigating seeds by examining them with magnifying glasses and sorting them by size, shape and color.   

We cut open our pumpkin and scooped out the seeds. 

We put 10 seeds into each small cups to help us count so many seeds. 

We counted by 10's and made two groups of 100.  We ended up with 247 seeds from the pumpkin.

We put our seeds into a sprout house to see them start to grow.  We put in apple seeds, pumpkin seeds and one acorn seed.  We wonder which one will sprout and grow a root. 

After two weeks some acorns and apple seeds have roots!  We put the seeds into soil to help them grow more roots.  

One little seed can become one little sprout and eventually one big fruit or vegetable!
