This term in science, Year 3AD @RF are learning all about plants! This week we have started an investigation into what plants need in order to grow and stay healthy. We set our investigation up by choosing four similiar plants; over the next week or two we will be investigating –

Do plants need water to grow?

Do plants need sunlight to grow?

In order to do this, each week we are going to water one plant but keep two in the sunlight. Then water both the other plants but keep one in darkness and the other in the sunlight. We’ve predicted that the plants that miss out on water and sunlight will not grow as well but we will have to wait to find out!
