Does a plant need water to grow?

We set up a fair test experiment to investigate this question.

We have left three green plants ( the same kind) in the same place, (with the same temperature, amount of light and size of pot) for a week.

The only condition we have changed is the amount of water we give to the plant each day.

Plant A has 200 ml of water.

Plant B has 100 ml of water.

Plant C has no water.

We have made predictions and will look at our results next lesson!

Following Instructions

This week in Literacy, we have been looking at instructions.

We followed a set of instructions to make our own Chinese lanterns.

Here is an example of some of them.

We looked at what needs to be included in a good set of instructions and will have a go next week at writing some of our own.
