We could use this lesson as a group guided inquiry project.  This project/investigation will be used with a 3rd grade class and is alligned with the core curriculum & standards-  "Generate questions about an object, organism, and/or events that can be answered through scientific investigation."

 

We would conduct an experiment using identical seeds/plants using artifical light vs. sunlight and tap water vs. bottle water.

Our students will do daily observations and look at how environment affects plants.

Our hope is that our students will develop their own questions to later develop their own experiment and lead to an independent inquiry project.
