Assessment
There is no assessment for this activity since students are simply setting up an experiment to learn from later on.
Tips
- If many of your students seem convinced that plants will not grow without soil nutrients, you may want to grow some radishes in other environments (like clear gel, or a petri dish) to demonstrate otherwise.
- Allow students to take pictures of what they are putting into their containers and as their plants grow as a reference for later on after plant growth.
