No votes have been submitted yet.

Students will be learning about the life cycle of a potato, how to grow potatoes, and measuring the growth of the stems. You'll need potatoes that are ready to plant, garden space, or tubs to put the potatoes in. The students will record their observations of the growth and write/draw in a garden journal.
