Tomatosphere - Grade 3 Adventure!
The Grade 3 classes are
participating in a garden project that is super exciting, called Tomatosphere. They
have received “special” seeds that have 2 packs. One package contains seeds
that have been sent into space and the other package contains the “control”
group, which have not been in space. The grade 3 students will learn how to
conduct a scientific experiment and compare the germination rates of the two
groups of seeds. This inquiry will help the children learn what plants need to
survive and also help astronauts understand some of the issues related to long-term
space travel. “It is an out-of –this-world opportunity for the Grade 3 students!!
We wish you luck with the tomatoes. We can’t wait to see how they progress.
