Planting and growing in Primary 1,

We have been talking about what plants need to grow and have planted a variety of seeds and broad beans.  We have set up experiments to show that plants need water, light and oxygen to grow best.  We looked at the hard shell around the beans, managed to peel it off to see the food inside but it was so hard we couldn’t make it all the way through to the little plant itself.  However, we are able to watch the transformation using our sprout houses on the windows. It is very exciting.
