Abstract Details
'Scientific Flower Pens' |
|
---|---|
Get your hands on make-and-take activities your learners will love to use! In this activity, you’ll practice making a silk flower pen using industry-standard floral tape. Weaving in a leaf that contains the scientific parts of a flower will provide a platform for discussions about the science and biology of agriculture production, as well as careers in agriculture. Next, you’ll get a chance to put your skills to the test by making a live-flower corsage. You’ll leave with a materials list and suggested suppliers to replicate this activity with minimal cost and time invested!
