After discussing the characteristics of living things, present your students with a cob of Indian corn.
What do they thing... Living or Non-living?
Let them discuss and without giving away any answers, stick the cob into a large, transparent container filled with dirt.
Leave the container in a spot where it can be observed on a daily basis and watch what happens.
What do they think now? Living or Non-living?
