Investigating variables

​During science, the children have conducted a scientific investigation and explored how variables can impact an experiment. The children are investigating the impact of sunlight on the growth of a plant and have changed the location of their seeds. They have kept all other variables the same to make the investigation fair. This week, the children analysed their seeds and saw that they hard started to grow. They found that the seeds that were in direct sunlight didn’t grow as well as they expected as the sun had dried up the water. The lack of light meant the seeds in the dark grew yellow and the seeds in the shade grew the most. The children were interested to see how their predictions differed from the results.
