We read the story "The Potato People" by Pamela Allen.
We made our own potato people and left them on display in our classroom for a long time.
We noticed that our potato people started sprouting stalks just like in the story.
We planted our potato people in our class garden and forgot about them for a while.
One day we decided to check our garden and we discovered that some new plants had grown.
What was growing?
POTATOES!
We had a wonderful time investigating and pulling out our new potatoes.
We scrubbed the dirt off them. Then we sliced them up and fried them in our fry pan at cooking time.
YUMMY! Potato chips!
We kept some potatoes so that we could make new potato people.
