Great scientists are very good at
observing

George Washington Carver).
GUIDED PRACTICEToday you will create your own science
journals!
As a child, George loved to draw plants. Here is a plant with all the parts labeled – petal, bud, leaf, roots, and stems.
Let’s practice these parts of the flower two or three times.
Let’s practice together. Can you figure out the parts of this plant?
HintsThere are:-2 buds-a stem-leaf-roots-petals.
INDEPENDENT PRACTICELet’s take about 10 minutes to complete our
science journals. I’ll set the timer once everyone is seated.
