Connecting Creativity to the Science Curriculum

The Tangelo

The tangelo is a citrus fruit hybrid of a tangerine and either a pomelo or a grapefruit.  Hybrid plants are created when two different plants are bred together to produce something new.  Sometimes this is done to create a stronger variety, such as disease-resistant corn. Other reasons include pleasure, as seen in the variety of flowers.  Challenge your students to discover the origin of peppermint.
