Ms. Poignant from the Illinois AG Extension office visited 2nd grade today. She taught us about growing plants and soil composition. Each student got to make their own terrarium and plant a couple seeds. The students chose between marigold, watermelon, green bean, radish and wild flower seeds. We can’t wait to watch them grow!
