Growing Beans.

A few weeks ago we read the story 'Jack and the Beanstalk' and in our science lesson we planted some seeds. We set up two experiments one putting beans in a pot and one putting bean seeds in a plastic bottle so that we could see what happens in the soil.

We needed some bean seeds, water, soil, a pot and some small stones for drainage. After we had planted the bean seeds we placed them on the window sill so that they were near the sunlight and then we waited. We remembered to water them at regular intervals. This week we measured our beans, one beanstalk has grown up to 63cm. We are very excited and can't wait to see if the beanstalks will grow as large as Jack's!!
