First Graders Take Hands-on Approach to Life Science Lesson

Recently Bethel Organics donated its Real Organic-Real Easy Seed Starting Kits™ to illustrate a life science lesson for four first grade classes at West Elementary. The kits provided the students with 100% organic and biodegradable DOT Pots™, soil tablets, fertilizer and seeds – everything they needed to grow their own plants and apply the lessons they learned about what living things need to survive. The plants began growing just in time for the students to observe the function of each plant part and within eight days they were seeing stem growth. The photo above was taken on day 18 and a few of the plants had tiny roots growing out of the pots.
