Journey two: energy to grow
‘Energy to grow’ will introduce pupils to the topic of plants. Through four different activities pupils will explore what plants are, the natural energy a plant needs to grow and how to care for a plant on a daily basis.
They will also get the chance to develop their skills of enquiry by observing and recording the different outcomes of their own growing experiment.
