"How a Seed Grows" by Helene J. Jordan
I strongly recommend this book as a great science lesson for ages 3 to 6 years. This book is from the Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science Series and includes a lesson on how a seed grows into a plant in a way that is very accessible for young children. The book goes through the step by step process of what exactly happens to a bean seed once it is planted in the soil, is given water and plenty of sunlight. There are great illustrations of each stage so the students will know exactly what they are looking for as the plant grows each day. It also includes a complete description and instructions for doing this experiment as a class project. This whole series seems great for introductions into specific lessons and class projects!

I remember growing a bean seed in school when I was a kid-this book would have been great to accompany the lesson.
ReplyDeleteI really believe that this book will be interesting to many children because planting any seed especially bean is fun.The excitement is when the the little bud sprout out.
