The
Onekama second graders went to Pleasanton Valley Greenhouses
April 6, 2012. They learned how you can grow the ingredients to make a
pizza and that most foods we eat start as plants. There are obvious
veggies in pizza but even to get the cheese, cows have to eat grass and
pigs have to eat grains (pepperoni) etc. After learning how to "grow" a
pizza they planted pots with three favorite plants. Mr. Mauntler will be
collecting these pots in a few weeks (just in time for Mother's Day) so
the children can see how their plants have changed and seeds have grown. |
