From Bulbs To Flowers, Elizabeth Vazquez
From Bulbs To Flowers, Elizabeth Vazquez
Graduate Student Independent Studies
In this thesis, I first developed the notion of a bulb as a means of introducing science to young children (ages five to eight).
First, bulb experiments were implemented. After a literature search, it was discovered that few books introduce scientific concepts with a storyline for young children. Therefore, I developed such a book in the process of writing the thesis. Lesson plans on bulbs for teachers were also developed and can be used in conjunction with the book or independently.
