Planting beans

​We have started our topic on ‘Plants’.  We looked at what plants need to grow.  We decided that they need:

• Sun
• Soil
• Nutrients
• Water
• Warmth

We planted our own bean and started a bean diary to chart our beans progress week by week.
We then started an experiment to see if a plant will grow if certain conditions are taken away.  We put a bean seed in the fridge, in a dark cupboard, left one without water, one outside and one with no soil.  We decided we need to check the experiment weekly to see what happens
The children predicted that the seeds will not grow because they do not have all the things they need.
