Today, one group of students planted bean sprouts so we can watch them grow under different circumstances. We have water vs. no water, sunlight vs. no sunlight, air vs. no air and different types of soil. We will continue to observe over the next couple of weeks, so stayed tuned...

We also started the discussion about how plants get water. We dissected stalks of celery and made some amazing observations. We will start to talk about the parts of a plant and how energy from the sun feeds the plants.
