Throughout the Living and Growing Together Unit, the student will choose a specific plant to research. This journal begins with a place to write the name and draw or find a picture of the plant that the student chose. After each lesson in which we discuss organisms need energy, water, stable internal conditions, a living space, organisms interact with each other, organisms have a particular life cycle, the student will research how each topic applies and relates specifically to the plant that he or she chose. This journal is a space for the child to record their findings. There is a Botanist Journal Rubric at the end of the document.
