Over the past few weeks, Year 2 have been growing radish seeds in different conditions in order to find out what seeds need to be healthy. This week, we recorded our results and made conclusions about our experiment.
Prior to recording our results, the children decided that the best way to assess how healthy the plants were was to compare their height and colour.
Through careful observation and diligent measuring, the children recorded their results and then made conclusions about what a plant needs to be healthy, based on their findings.
The children discovered that the plants that received water and sunlight grew the tallest and also looked the healthiest colour. Therefore, they concluded that plants need water and sunlight in order to grow.
We have really enjoyed our science topic this half term and hope that it has encouraged the children to plant more things at home.
Remember to send us pictures of your sunflowers as they grow!
