In this activity, learners will be working with predictions with a time frame of one week, or longer. Start by planting seedlings.

In this activity (located in the middle of the page), learners start a garden by planting their socks!

In this biology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will explore how plants turn sunlight into food through a process called photosynthesis.

In this activity on page 7 of the PDF (Plants—The Green Machines), learners examine the effects that light and air have on green plants.

In this biology experiment, learners plant soybean seeds in plaster of Paris, witnessing firsthand the mighty power and ability of plants to grow in adverse conditions.

In this activity, learners create a garden in a disposable glove. They learn about the conditions necessary to make the seeds sprout and actively participate in caring for their plants.

Learners use a transparent plastic glove as a container to grow seeds. A different kind of seed can be planted in each finger.

In this investigation, learners plant seeds in a 2-liter bottle filled with soil that is connected to a water source below. Over the next few weeks, learners observe how the plants grow.

In this activity, young learners (2 years and up) explore flower and plant biology and pollination by planting seed in a homemade seed starter.

In this activity learners will plant grass seed and track the growth of the grass over time.

In this hands-on botany activity, learners sprout vegetables in film canisters.

In this activity, young learners will make their own flower seed nursery in an egg carton.

In this activity, learners use food scraps from the kitchen to grow new vegetables.

Learners assemble a figure from a nylon stocking or sock stuffed with soil and seeds. The ends of the nylons inside the jar absorb water, which feeds the grass seeds.

In this biology/ecology activity, learners construct a terrarium out of a tennis ball container. This terrarium is unique because it never has to be watered.
