Year 4 have learnt so much about germination by watching their broad beans grow. They potted them in British Science week only in a plastic bottle with tissue paper and watered them. Since then they have observed 20 days of growth. Initially, the root started to sprout and by day 6 there were signs of the shoot appearing. Year 4 have been fascinated by the roots spouting and how it kept multiplying and branching off. As the days went on, Year 4 observed the shoot really growing and by day 16 some of our little broad breans had started to grow leaves. I hope now they are potted in soil at home and I look forward to the first crops coming back into school in the summer. Great scientific work Year 4.
