As a class we were investigating the best place to build a castle where it could be defended and where we coud grow our crops. Some of the children thought they could build their castle underground - in a cave- and plant their crops there too; so we decided as a class to investigate where the best place would be to plant our beans.
Some children suggested underground in cave like conditions so we planted our beans in a hole and covered them over with a plastic box and covered them with soil. Some children suggested they get planted inside where it is light and warm, others suggested they were kept in a cupboard and watered.
After we had carried out our digging and planting we predicted what might happen. Please check back to find out about our investigations.
