What did we notice this week?

We have been talking about how it is important to always use our eyes and notice things that are happening around us, especially the great things.

Outside our classroom (the music room) we noticed a new plant had popped up and was not like any of the plants around it. We were curious learners and wanted to know all about this plant. We got on the internet and used key words to research about this plant.

I saw white flowers outside room 10.

They are  called Japanese anemones.

The flowers have more than 20 petals and a yellow centre.

We took a photo and observed a real white flower outside our class. We noticed the middle bud comes out first then the outside ones come out after that.   We found out all that with our eyesight.  One of our senses. We also checked our idea.

You wont believe this but the anemone hupehensis was found in China!

We have discovered what that funny plant is. It is called an Japanese Anemone. Mrs Sietkiewicz said that it isn't a weed, like Miss Waghorn thought.
