Seed to baby Sunflower
Our seeds have grown and we have baby Sunflowers.
We have learned a new word, Germination.
Germination means "begins to grow".
We learned that inside the seed is a root and a shoot or stem.
When the seed starts taking in water the seed swells bigger and bigger until the coat splits apart.
The seed uses energy to grow from the food it has stored.
The root begins to grow downward and the baby stem begins to curl upward.
