On Tuesday, September 16th our students worked with an NKU affiliate to
learn about and study flowers. All students got to see the small parts of a
flower up close and personal. They discovered the seeds at the base of the
flower and saw the tiny bits of pollen on the anther of the
stamen. It was a fun class and we learned a lot. Thank you to
our friends at NKU and CINSAM!
