KEEPING A RECORD
         Using colored pencils and a drawing pad, keep records of
         flowers that you see. A magnifying glass is useful for looking
         at flowers close-up; scissors and tweezers will help you to
         investigate the parts of a flower. A notebook is the flower
         explorer’ s most important piece of equipment. If you want
         a lasting reminder of a flower’ s shape, you can learn how


         to press it.



              Be careful while using
              scissors. Always ask an
              adult to help.













                                      Drawing flowers helps you
                                      to see how the different
                                      parts fit together.




       Making seeds                                                 A cherry is
                                                                    a juicy fruit
       Once a flower has withered,                                  that contains
       it starts to make seeds. Some                                a single seed.
       seeds come in juicy cases.
       We call them fruit. Later on,
       you will see how seeds are
       scattered, and how they turn
       into new plants.
