In Primary 6 we have been looking at the effect the fertilizer has on plant growth. We planted radish seeds in compost and fed them a different amount of liquid fertilizer (Miracle-Gro). We measured the seedlings over a period of 10 days and recorded the results in a table. These results were then plotted onto graph paper and also electronically represented on a spreadsheet.
Primary 6 collated all the information into a scientific report, proving that their hypothesis was correct.

Measuring correct volume to keep a ‘Fair Test’
