Bio Ed Online: Needs of Plants

Curated by ACT

Each student will make his/her own mini-garden and will observe the growth and development of radishes. To help students learn about requirements for plant growth, the teacher will make four experimental gardens and place them in different locations with different conditions.This activity is from the Living Things and Their Needs Teacher's Guide. Although it is most appropriate for use with students in grades K-2, the lesson is easily adaptable for other grade levels. The guide also is available in print format.
