Journey of a Seed lesson plan

Journey of a Seed

This lesson plan, adapted from Project WILD, helps students understand how seeds are carried by wildlife and people, and the importance of seed dispersal in native plant growth. Students participate in an activity where they wear a sock and walk through a grassy area to collect items, including seeds, and then tally and draw what they find. The activity aims to illustrate the relationship between plants, people, and wildlife in ensuring healthy ecosystems and future plant growth. The extension activity involves creating a bar or scatterplot graph to compare results.
