We have been learning about what plants need to grow and develop:

• SF: Heat
• SW: Light
• KC: Soil to grow in, to get food from.
• AA: Water

We looked at our bean plants and thought about why some look healthier than others:

• CS: What is funny is that the less healthy ones have grown taller than the healthy one.
• RB: The tall ones have been trying to reach up high enough to get the light that they need.
• CS/RB: We need to put them in a sunny place, somewhere where someone isnt blocking the light.
• KC: We could put them out in the garden.

We took the seeds and planted them outside in the hope that the weaker bean plants would be able to reach the light that they needed to become healthier.

We noticed that the healthiest bean plant was just sitting in the water – not even really into the soil so we learned that beans LOVE water!
