Using STEM to Grow a Garden
by Tracy Sullins
Students will plant and observe plants from seed to full germination while making observations on growth in this engaging lesson. This will be done using a science notebook to record germination, height, and number of leaves. You will need to decide where to put you plants and what containers you will use, the types of seeds you will provide, and the length of time you will have for this project.
