What do seeds need?


Young children are naturally curious and constantly exploring the world around them. Classroom science provides the opportunity for children to extend this natural curiosity and building of theories. The children in Group 4 did an experiment to test the conditions which a seed needs to germinate.
The target language was sun, water and seed.  We asked the key questions "What does a seed need to grow?" and "What will happen to these seeds?".  We learned about making a hypothesis, observed the seeds during the week and then discussed the results.
