Decomposition Investigation
How do plant parts decompose and how does decomposition support plant growth? Make observations of plant matter at different stages of decomposition and make inferences about cycles of matter in ecosystems.
Flower Investigation
What are the parts of a flower and why are they important for plant reproduction? Make observations about the parts and features of flowers and make inferences about how flowers help plants reproduce.
Fruit Investigation
What are the parts of a fruit, and why are they important for plant growth and survival? Make observations about the parts and features of fruit. Make inferences about how fruit helps the plant grow and survive.
Leaf Investigation
What are the parts of a leaf and why are the parts important for plant growth and survival? Make observations about the parts and features of leaves and make inferences about how leaves help plants grow and survive.
Pollinators Investigation
What is the population of pollinators in your garden space and what is their role in a plant’s life cycle? Work individually or collaboratively to produce data on pollinators in a garden, compare data collected by different groups and make inferences about the role of pollinators in a plant’s life cycle.
Root Investigation
What are the parts of a root and why are they important for plant growth and survival? Make observations about the parts and features of roots and make inferences about how roots help plants grow and survive.
Seed Dispersal Investigation
How do the living and nonliving elements of a plant’s environment help the plant spread its seeds? Collaborate or work individually to produce data on seed dispersal in the garden and make inferences about the role of seed dispersal mechanisms in a plant’s life cycle.
Seed Investigation
What are the parts of a seed and why are the parts important for plant growth and survival? Make observations about the parts and features of seeds and make inferences about how seeds help plants grow and survive.
Soil Investigation
What is soil made of and why is it important to plants? Investigate the composition of soil by using your senses and simple tools to make inferences about why soil is important for plant growth.
Stem Investigation
What are the parts of a stem and why are these parts important for plant growth and survival? Make observations about the parts and features of stems and make inferences about how stems help plants grow and survive.
