Plant Growth Experiment Assessment

This lesson explores how plants need water and sunlight to grow. Students conduct an experiment by placing three plants in different light conditions: full sun, partial shade, and full shade. They predict growth outcomes, label plants, and ensure equal watering. After a month, students observe and record plant changes, drawing leaf pictures. The lesson highlights variables like weather and plant type affecting results. Students analyze data, noting that full sun plants may suffer from heat stress, similar to sunburn in humans.

What is the main focus of the lesson introduced in the video?

What should you use to draw a picture of the plant leaves during observation?

• A camera

• Colored pencils

• A paintbrush

• A pen

What is a key factor that can affect the results of the plant growth experiment?

• The size of the plant

• The age of the plant

• The color of the plant

• The type of plant used

What happened to the plant in full sun during the experiment?
