Shannon's Story of the Seed

After experiencing this TSOTS year long project, Shannon has learned how to start and maintain a garden. While this project has progressed, she has learned a lot about their functions. She noticed how the reproduction of plant cells is different to animal cells. She also realized how fragile plants are to their gardeners. Shannon was surprised how quick it is to grow a garden and be able to grow edible food. Shannon has enjoyed working with her group, despite some difficulties, because she has become interested in this subject. Something that made her think deeply was how we have the ability to change whole communities simply by planting a garden. As a whole, she enjoyed the Story of the Seed project.

While interviewing my teammate Cameron, he states that he has learnt much about the life span of a plant. Something that surprised him was watching the plants sprout and observing their rapid growth each day. During his experience in The Story of the Seed project he thought that the funniest thing was when he and his teammate fooled around while watering the plants. Something that had made Cameron pause and think a little deeper was understanding the complexity of plants and the everyday benefits that they give us.

Blog Post #8: My Seed Story

Throughout my experience in The Story of the Seed project, I have learned much about the parts of a plant, what they need in order to survive, how they reproduce and also about the processes of meiosis and mitosis. In particular, I was amazed by how plants can reproduce, passing on the same traits to their seeds. During this project some of my teammates made me laugh, it was a good experience working in as a team. Something that made me think a little deeper were how certain traits could be passed on to the next generation, in addition I thought it was very interesting dissecting a flower and closely observing the parts, inside and outside, of a plant.

What questions do you have about things you observed or experienced in the garden? OK, now, guess what? You are going to write about the experiences of one of your teammates! Work closely with one other person in your group and summarize that person's  answers to the questions above in a short paragraph that you will post under your name. Your post title should include your teammate's name (e.g., "John's Seed Story").

Blogpost #8

           I have learned about the lifespan of plant life. I was surprised when I came to school a few days later and the plants were fully sprouted. The funniest thing was our group threatening to spray each other with the hose. It was very interesting when we were discussing our plan and seeing the plants grow. I would like to know more about our greenhouse.  Renato
