Get Growing

Please watch the video below to get started.

 

Plant two plants in two different conditions. For example one planted outside and one inside. One next to a window and one not in direct sunlight. One in a glasshouse and one outside etc.

Begin to keep a diary of your seeds with the first entry explaining:

  • The two different conditions you have planted your seeds

  • Your prediction on which will start growing first and why?

From this point on, you can save your pictures, make a diary entry with a photo every 3 days or so.

Each time you upload a photo, you can answer these few questions:

  • Has anything changed with the seeds you have planted? If so please explain what has changed

  • Did your prediction for the previous entry come true. Why / Why not?

  • What do you think will happen in the next few days to each plant?

  • How much water did you give?

The project can go on for as long as you wish.

Once your project is completed you should answer these questions:

  • Which plant grew better? Why do you think this was the case?

  • Now that you understand what conditions allow seeds to grow, what could we do with this knowledge?

  • Why is it important to share this knowledge with others?

  • How can this knowledge help us to create a better environment for all?
