Illinois Prairie Plants 

We are third grade students who live in Wilmette, Illinois. Our class choose to study prairie plants that are native to Illinois. Each student studied a different plant. We first found many interesting facts about our plants and then we each created a model of our own plant. We also wrote a poem about our own prairie plant. Look at what we found!
