Germinate Bean Seeds

In this literature and science worksheet, students respond to the book Jack and the Beanstalk by planting their own beanstalk. Students gather the 5 necessary tools and follow the 5 directions for planting a bean seed in a pot.

Students conduct an experiment in order to understand the term germination.  In this germination lesson, students place two soy beans in a bag with a dampened cotton ball.  Students hang the bags around their necks and record their...

After a discussion of the factors that affect seed germination, class groups harvest and preserve seeds from the school garden.

Students explore plant needs. In this science lesson, students plant bean seeds in three different jars. Students make predictions about what will happen to the seeds in each jar and observe what happens in each jar.

Students germinate a Mung Bean seed. In this seed instructional activity students conduct an experiment germinating a Mung Bean. They apply three different treatments to the seeds: dry, moist, and underwater incubation.

Students explore germination. In this science lesson, students participate in a variety of activities involving germination. Students observe a bean seed sprouting and record the sequence of a bean sprouting. Students identify the best...

In this math/science worksheet, learners collaborate as a class to create a bar graph which displays the germination time for bean seeds. Students survey their classmates and plot results on a graph.

Young scholars dissect seeds. In this seed dissection lesson, students discover the anatomy of seeds. After dissecting seeds, young scholars hypothesize and design the perfect seed to survive in a dry forest.

What a great way to study plants and seeds! Learners complete an experiment involving a seed, and then head to the computer lab to draw a picture of their results. By incorporating educational software, KidPix, this activity becomes a...

Learners examine how seeds germinate in a culture.  In this germination lesson plan students germinate seeds in gelatin and observe the growth of the plant.
