We will be reviewing parts of the seed in class this week. The kids will see it in action when they plant their own sprouts, carrots, beans, beets, and more. What better way to reinforce this learning with Magic School Bus. Here are the videos I found online that tie well together with plants. All (or most) Magic School Bus videos can be found free on youtube. Amazing hey!
Episode 36 (Gets Planted)
When Phoebe tries to grow a big vine for her school's production of Jack and the Beanstalk, all she ends up with is a stunted little sprout. To help out, Ms. Frizzle turns her into a real vine. But to grow tall, Phoebe needs to figure out how plants eat - fast! To unearth the amazing ways plants make their own food, the Friz and the kids shrink down and dig deep in a quest to root out the facts!
Episode 11 (Goes To Seed)
The class' garden is going to be featured on the cover of PLANT IT! magazine. But Phoebe's garden plot is glaringly empty. Always eager to help, Ms. Frizzle shrinks the bus to the size of a ladybug, and the class is off and flying to Phoebe's old school to find a plant.
Episode 7 (All Dried Up)
Always the caring soul, Phoebe goes on a crusade to save the animals and plants of the desert. After experiencing the unique ways in which desert plants and animals conserve water, find food and deflect the heat, Phoebe realizes that they don't need help after all.
