First Grade Explores Plants

Academy first graders recently visited the Lyon Arboretum as a supplemental field trip to their class curriculum to learn about plants. In class, the girls are learning about plant parts and what plants need in order to survive. In a classroom activity, Ariane N. and Cherish M. drew their observations of a Morning Glory plant.

At the Lyon Arboretum, Rylee N. and Kayla K. enjoyed the hands on activity to find the tree trunk, or stem of the tree, that fits perfectly with its matching "tree belt". Mahalo to Academy first grade teacher, Dr. Sharon Fukayama for sharing the great photos!

I remember a field trip in first grade where we explored a local garden to learn about plants. It was fascinating to see how different elements of nature work together. We examined leaves, flowers, and even insects that play a role in plant growth. Those hands-on experiences made learning unforgettable! It’s great to see today’s students engaging in nature like we did. If you’re looking for something fun to try, I suggest playing Italian Brainrot Clicker; it’s a delightful way to unwind and enjoy some gaming.

It's wonderful to see first graders engaging with nature at the Lyon Arboretum! Learning about plant parts and their survival needs is fundamental. Reminds me of the simple joy of the Snake Game, endlessly searching for nourishment to grow. These budding botanists, much like a determined snake in the game, are absorbing knowledge and exploring new environments.
