Sample Lesson Plan Idea: (From the Crayola Website)
Spring Springs
Create realistic flowers from construction paper and recycled items to show what you know about the parts of a flower.
Steps:

. Find pictures of parts of a flower. Learn the names and purposes of each part. Find out how different flowers grow (bulbs, seeds, rhizomes) and in what climates.

2. To make flowers: With Crayola® Scissors and construction paper, cut out flower parts for several different flowers. Choose various accurate shapes and colors for petals, pistils, stamens, and other parts.

3. Decorate flower parts with Crayola Construction Paper Crayons and Crayola Washable Glitter Glue.

4. Twist the top of a chenille stick into a loop. Tape the appropriate flower parts to the chenille stem.

5. To make a vase: Cut a construction paper cover to fit a recycled cardboard can, such as a potato chip or juice can. Decorate it with crayons and glitter glue. Attach it with Crayola School Glue. Arrange the flowers in your vase in an artful way.

Adaptations:

Construct leaves, such as ferns, from construction paper, to add to your bouquet. Use a field guide or real-life plants for information about shapes, colors, and sizes.

Visit a greenhouse, garden, or farm to see how flowers are raised. What do flowers need to grow? How are such fragile items shipped?

Take a Flower Fragrance walk. Draw pictures of flowers that smell wonderfully, and those that have no smell at all. Can you find any that do not have a pleasant smell?
