For our spring science unit we are learning about plants! We planted rye grass and alfalfa together in cups and are observing their growth and we also "planted" wheat seeds in straws to watch what happens on both ends of the seed. For our wheat experiment we put some straws by the window and some in the closet so that we can observe the difference between those exposed to light and those that are not. So far both have sprouted and we discussed that seeds do sprout in the dark (underground) but in order to grow into a healthy plant they will need light. We are predicting to see a difference as the experiment continues. So far the sprouts by the window are greener than those in the closet (which are pretty white).
Today was a rainy Friday afternoon so we made a plant art project to show the different parts of a plant!
