From bean to plant and back to bean... Gan Reut recalled reading the book One Bean prior to wrapping their Lima beans in moist paper towels in conjunction with our Tu B'Shvat unit. We watched as our beans took root, as they slowly grew into a plant once planted in soil, we observed the plant as it grew and grew, we noticed tiny little flowers bud and then drop off, and finally we saw tiny bean pods begin to appear. Today, we opened up those fully formed bean pods and were amazed to find perfectly formed Lima beans!!! The cycle has completed itself, and we are ready to start all over!
