Bean Growing Experiment

This week our JK/SK class has been learning about bean seeds. We did some research and learnt that our seeds would need to be planted, watered and put in direct sunlight so they would grow. The children wrote out a list of directions so they would remember how to grow their bean seeds. We decided to do two different experiments:
1.        growing the seeds in a cup with cotton wool
2.      Growing the seeds by placing them in a bowl of water with no sunlight to see if they sprouted.

We are observing our seeds every day to measure their growth and hypothesising our ideas about what will happen next.
The children are very excited to see what happens!
