This week we learned about the prairie!
We are lucky enough to have a little pocket of prairie of our own here at Country Day. Each class had the chance to visit the prairie and discover the flowers and grasses and animals that live there.
We learned that prairie plants have especially long roots to survive a dry environment. Some of them, like the Big Blue Stem Grass has roots up to 10 feet long!
10 feet or 3 kids long!
We also collected prairie seeds to giveaway at our Earth Day Clean-up this year!
See you outside!
