Sunflowers!

Our beautiful sunflowers that we planted last November have finished. What a lovely display they were!
Today we collected up all the seeds - and quickly found that we were dealing with very large numbers!

We counted approximately 250 seeds into a small plastic cup and weighed it. We then weighed all the seeds we had collected - that was 500g. We worked out that 41 little cups could weigh the same as the large bowl of seeds. We then did some multiplying and worked out that 41 times 250 (seeds) was 10250! That's a lot of seeds!!
