Photo diary

Day 1 in the germination tank!





Some have already started to split open.








This is a photo of the first set, as you can see one went mouldy and sprouted hair. Fingers crossed the next set turn out a lot better!

Plants!

This half term in Science we have been studying plants and their life cycle. We have learnt all about germination, pollination and seed dispersal. We have a germination tank in our classroom and are currently on our second attempt to germinate broad beans. The first set malfunctioned.... ask your children about why we think this happened!!!



Look back for our photo diary and please keep your fingers crossed! Once the seeds germinate we will grow the beans and see which child manages to grow the biggest broad bean!

Ask your child what they know on this topic, I'm sure you will be amazed.
