La Flor!

For the past week and a half of school the 7th and 8th grade Science class has been studying the reproduction system of a flower. It has been a very interesting topic to teach, and hopefully interesting to learn.



As we went through the chapter we identified, diagrammed, and constructed the reproductive parts of the flower. Then, just yesterday the girls got to see a glimpse at it from a real flower. It was fun to watch as they took the flowers a part and viewed for themselves the different organs. One of the girls got a little more into it than the others and decided to name each of the ovules she found within the ovary of the flower. :)

Science is very quickly becoming one of my favorite classes to teach. There is so much a person can do with it and it's incredible to see our Creator through His creation!
