My observation report

Introduction:This term we have been learning about plants, and how plants grow. We investigated our plants for 4 days.

Procedure:On August 10, Our group gathered 2 plastic cups,2 plants, water, sunproof box and the sun. Before we started our science investigation,we had to get the soil, plant and some water. First we put the soil into the 2 plastic cups and put our 2 plants into the cup Once we finished adding the soil and then we added some water into the cup so that our 2 plants don’t die. Secondly, we put one of our plants under the sunproof box and the other plant, we put it on the window sill in the sun.

Observations:The next day after leaving our 2 plants for 24 hours, we noticed that the leaves were getting lighter on the one that we left under the sunproof box. The one we left on the window sill, the leaves were kind of going rotten, we watered our 2 plants and then put it back under the sunproof box and put the other plant back onto the window sill.

On the second day, the thing that changed about our 2 plants was the one in the sunproof box was growing really well and the leaves were kind of going light, and the one in the sun was kind of dying, the leaves were kind of dying. It was hard to tell which one was surviving, or which one was dying.We watered our plants when we finished investigating our plants.

On the third day, when I took the plant that was sitting on the window sill, I noticed that it was kind of dying. The thing that caught my eyes were that more leaves than from the past had fallen or dying. It got me thinking is it autumn already?

Conclusion:Finally, it was our last investigation. Our plants still didn't make any progress. Both of the plants were kind of dry and most of the leaves were dead.
I discovered that plants can grow many ways and plants will die and leaves will rot at some point. I enjoyed experimenting with both, plants because I found out a lot about plant life and the cycle of a plant's life.

Day 4 Investigation


Day 3

Daisy’s two leaves are completely DEAD now! And one of her other leaves is starting to get dry.I’m confused that Dandelion has survived!Or maybe Daisy has some kind of disease.I should take her to a biologist.....On the other hand Dandelion is growing well but one of her leaves is starting to get dry on the edge.Maybe both will die soon?! hmm-mm I wonder if one will survive?
The one at the top is dandelion and the one at the bottom is daisy.

Day 3 Investigation


There has been a slight change to both our plants the plant that we put by the window had sunshine and it has changed heaps some of the leaves are dead.
This is the plant we left in the dark under the box is growing faster then the one in the sun and the leaves are going lighter.

Day 2 Investigation.


Today we checked our plants and the plant that we left in the dark box is still the same but the outside of the leaves have gone lighter and the plant that we put by the window had sunshine and is still looking the same but the roots are expanding. Now I am wondering if the plant that we are leaving under the box is going to grow.

Sience Science

 

 I hypothesis that the plant that is in the sun during the process will grow faster than the one covered by the light proof hat is in the sun during the process will grow faster than the one covered by the light proof box.
