Step one for this activity is to think about where you have seen houseplants - do you have houseplants in your house?  How about neighbors, friends, and family?  Talk with your family about what you can recall...and who really loves taking care of their plants?  Who doesn't?  What kind of plants do they have?  Do you have any funny stories about houseplants?

If you are willing, be ready to share your response with your class.
