Photosynthesis and Planting

31st May 2019

As part of our World Around Us topic we been exploring Energy. Today we looked at how plants get and release energy. We planted some cress seeds and completed a fair test. We are investigating the following conditions necessary for plants to grow-heat, light and water, each group changing one variable. We look forward to watching  our plants grow over the next few weeks, observing the different changes and concluding the conditions plants need to survive. Check out our photos, we have some great gardeners in our class!
