English/Japanese Science: Preparing for Plant Tasting Party

Our plant unit is coming to an end. To conclude this unit, we are having a plant tasting party! Each student picked a plant part to bring to the class to share. 

To prepare for this event, each student needs to know what plant to bring and what part of the plant it is. 

Here's our list:

Flower
Broccoli
Cauliflower
Artichoke

Stem
Asparagus
Celery

Seed
Peas
Corn
Sunflower Seeds
Soy Beans

Leaves
Lettuce
Spinach
Cabbage

Fruit
Cucumber
Tomato
Peppers
Eggplant
Pumpkin

Roots
Carrot
Radish
Turnip

To help those students in the Japanese class, students drew a picture of their plant part and memorized the following phrases. 


これは (plant part we eat) です。
(plant part we eat)は はな／くき／たね／はっぱ／み／ねっこ です。

Surprisingly the students caught on and I think they are ready to tell me what it is and what plant part it is on Wednesday!
