Salt Lamps and Plants
by Tabatha Hancock
Students in this lesson will set up an investigation to see if a salt lamp affects plant growth. They will use what they know about photosynthesis and cellular respiration to make sure the plants have everything they need in order to survive during the investigation. At the end of the investigation, they will use results to discuss if/how the salt lamp appears to have affected our plants.
