Plentiful Plants #3 - Responsibility


FUNCTION, a key concept for our current unit, helps the children develop the understanding that everything has a purpose, a role or a way of behaving that can be investigated. And during our play time in the forest, the children were really interested in the slugs. We decided to bring a few from the forest to put into our aquarium to help us learn how animals use plants. However, after two weeks, the children started to complain about the smell coming from the slugs.  To help the children understand, RESPONSIBILITY, another key concept for this unit, the children undertook the job of taking care of the slugs’ habitat.
