Planting seeds using old teabags
Today we planted some alfalfa seeds inside used teabags. These are a good way of reusing something that just gets thrown out. They are also sterile because they have had boiling water poured over them for a cup of tea!
We had a paper plate for each class and lined it with a paper towel. We cut each teabag and sprinkled some seeds inside. Now we need to keep them damp until the seeds begin to sprout. Yum!

It is great to hear your seeds are sprouting. I think you kids are doing a wonderful job looking for ways to protect our environment and to recycle. Every little bit helps. Keep up the great learning.
