Pollution

We have just started our unit on pollution and and its effects on the environment. We are testing the effects of clean water, oily water and salty water on the growth of lima beans and green beans. Today we planted our beans and put the three types of water in 3 different cups with soil and beans. We will water these plants over the next few weeks and see what happens. Ask you children about what resources we used today and what their predictions are for this experiment. Check back to find out if your or your child's predictions were correct. You can also talk about the types of resources we use each and everyday.
