Just..let’s go over it before we get into our activity. BUT--what ARE the parts of the rose and what is their function? Tell me everything you know!”
Professor Myers received all the BEAMS at the moment. BIG WIDE BEAMS FROM VIVIAN.
So they were starting with the basics first. Vivi didn't mind. It was a good idea to take the lesson one at a time. The eleven year old jotted more notes on her notebook. She did take note about that detail, the rose plant shrub thingy. She never really thought of it. Mostly just thought roses were pretty flowers that her daddy would give her mummy during Valentines' Day or their anniversary. Cheesy parents, really.
Vivi raised her hand up. "
I know it's been mentioned before, and pretty obvious too, but the rose petals are one of its parts!" She grinned at Professor Myers and wiggled on her seat. "
They're really pretty... just like YOU in your Red Queen costume, Professor!" Truth be told, he was really pulling that outfit off.
