Plant Activities For Preschoolers. Parts of a Plant Worksheet
This week in Pre-K, you are likely to find the students exploring their gardening unit as it has been infused into the various learning centers.
In creative expression, the children have been busy as bees coloring, cutting, and pasting their flowers onto construction paper. Then as they label the various parts of their plant, the children practice sounding out the words.
At the sensory table children put their green thumbs to use as they dig in the soil and plant flowers to enjoy! Maybe at home you have some real flowers that need repotted or some garden seeds that need planted.
Children love the construction area because they can create their own flower garden by stacking the parts of the flowers to get just the look they are going for. Creativity, imagination, problem solving. these activities help boost all these skills. Plus, the class has talked about the life cycle of plants during group. So take a minute to ask you child what they've learned about plants this week!
