Sensational Sunflowers


It is Autumn now and our sunflowers are dying so we decided to cut off the head and get the seeds out.   But... our scissors broke into three pieces!
     

So we pulled the sunflower out of the ground using our big muscles.



We twisted and bent the stem to break the flower head off.


  

The sunflower was a bit heavy with so many seeds in it.



We brought the sunflower inside and then we pulled the seeds out.  It was tricky to get the seeds out, we had to pinch with our sneaky fingers.


  


   

We wrote about our sunflower and we used connectives to join our ideas in our writing.
  
Look at this clever writing!

  1. Wow, this would make a great story - like the giant pumpkin.
    What will you do with the seeds?
