A month ago we planted broad beans. We planted one bean each and also 3 extra beans.
Bean 1 – we did not water……the bean did not grow
Bean 2 – we planted without soil……the bean started to grow a root and a shoot. It had two leaves
Bean 3 – we kept in the dark……the bean did not grow
Half of our beans did not grow, the other half grew well and this week we were able to measure how tall they were. We worked in pairs to measure the height using cubes.
We created a bar chart showing the height of each plant. The tallest plant was 29 cubes tall and the smallest was 5 cubes high.
Our plants were very fragile so we carefully took them home to continue growing.
