Life and Times Of a Plant Part 2
This is the second part to life and times of a plant. Well part 2 because we ran out of room. This is students observations of a plant daily.
Day 18: The stem has grown to a darker green. Two triangular leafs have grown in towards the middle. The leaves appear to be turned. and the tip of the stem is curling.
The reason for skipping days is that the students were in school and over the weekend and spring break.
Final Journal Entry
Day 18: Today people put in sticks into my soil. Tied me to the stick and now I stand straight. My leaves have grown to trianglar shapes. I feel that soon I will start sprouting more.
