הרומן שלי עם ורדים הולך הרבה שנים אחורה, עוד מאז שהייתי ילדה ובלעתי בשקיקה סיפורת אנגלית המתארת לפרטי פרטים את הגינות האנגליות היפות, סביב לבתים אשר תוארו בספרים. כבר אז חלמתי על בית קוטג’ קטן ומסביב לו גינה עם פרחי בר ושיחים מכל מיני סוגים של ורדים. הפרח האלגנטי הזה על צבעיו וריחותיו העזים כבש אז ליבי. יש בו משהו מלכותי וחגיגי כל כך, והוא תמיד מסמל עבורי את מהות היופי של העולם הזה. כמובן שרכשתי זרי ורדים בכל הזדמנות, שזרתי, צילמתי, ותמיד עקבתי בערגה מרחוק אחרי David Austin, מגדל הורדים האנגלי הפופולרי בעולם. עד שלאחרונה, נתקלתי לשמחתי הרבה במשתלת…

I just finished these free Parts of the Seed Cards for myself and for all of my wonderful readers. YEAH! You will notice that I have done something a little different for these cards. There is actually not really a standard in the Montessori community when it comes to naming the parts of the seed. I have made two cards for a couple of the parts so that you can choose which one you want to use at your place. Parts of the Seed Nomenclature Cards click on picture to link to file The following terms are used: Seed Coat/Testa Seed Leaf/Cotyledon Radicle Embryo/Epicotyl This is the Little Book to accompany the cards. The child looks at the nomenclature card, colors the corresponding part on his/her page, and then writes in the name for that part. You can cut them apart for the child, or they can do the cutting themselves. Parts of the Seed Little Booklet click on picture to link to file This site carries my favorite bean seed puzzles to go along with these cards. A Parts of the Seed Puzzle could easily be made out of felt. The following file could be used as a template. I have used it on the shelf as a pasting activity for the children to make their own little seed to take home. I will have to make an example in the next couple of weeks to show you.
