Plant Life

Creativity – Collaboration – Communication – Critical Thinking.  The cornerstones of STEM. 

The second graders are learning about what a plant needs in order to survive. They have planted two seeds in two plastic cups. Their challenge was to design a small greenhouse out of straws and plastic wrap to house one of the plants. They will be comparing the growth of that plant to the one without a greenhouse, to determine the effects of sunlight/heat on each plant.
