How Does Your Garden Grow?

In this lesson, students will help create an interactive bulletin board by measuring the height of a paper flower using connecting cubes and then directly comparing the height of their flower to the height of two others. Then students will "plant" their flowers in flowerpots on the bulletin board in order from shortest to tallest, so that other class gardeners will have the chance to see how they “grow”!
