npower Climate Cops Green Fingers’ Teacher Zone

‘Energy to begin’ will introduce pupils to the topic of seeds.

Through four different activities pupils will explore what seeds are, how they disperse using wind energy and the elements of natural energy they need for germination.  They will also get the chance to take part in a fun growing experiment of their own.
