Today we visited the Missouri Botanical Garden to learn more about plants! We've been studying them in science. We started off with a class and reviewed food chains. We learned about those in our previous science unit - ecosystems!
We made a "food chain" and "passed" down the energy!
Then, we watched decomposition!
We got to plant our own plants - basil!
It was soon time to explore the garden!
