Salt Lamps and Plants
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.

Students will continue from their research and start an investigation to help with their solution. They will first learn about compost and what it does. They will then develop and investigation and
Students will use live seedlings and available information about seedling and the Sun's energy to determine the best location for the plant to thrive.
Students will use solar panels to convert solar energy into electricity. This solar energy is transmitted through cables to the motor and then to the fountain. The fountain pressure increases and
