Harvesting Broccoli
Clipboard & pencil, measuring cup, 12" long string, ruler 
Harvest the heads of broccoli and leave the plants. You can harvest the broccoli by grabbing hold of the head and twisting like you were turning a door knob.  Place your harvest in a clean basket. 

1. When you eat broccoli, what part of the plant are you eating?

2. Approximately how many cups of broccoli did you harvest? 

3. What was the circumference of the largest head of broccoli you harvested?

Once you have completed your assignment and answered the questions, each child may pick five flowers.
