Our Experiments!


               


                Today Mr.Curtin picked seven people to do some experiments!
                We did them to find out what  would make a plant grow faster.
                We did two experiments one, where we put cut up pieces of a banana
                skin and put them in the soil.The second experiment was when we 
                mixed hydro-gel with soil!
               

           


                First we got a clean nappy and filled it to the brim with water.
                Once we had filled it up we then tore it apart to get to the hydro-gel 
                inside.We then scooped it up and put it into to bowls.when we had taken every 
                piece of hydro-gel out Nicole and Eve carried it down to the staff room 
                and  placed it into the fridge . 

                When the hydro-gel was ready Mr.Curtin picked seven people to 
                 carry out the experiments. Once he had picked the seven he then 
                 put us in groups of two and a group of three . He gave each group two 
                 plant pots  in one we put the hydro-gel and soil with of coarse the seeds!
                 In the other we put cut up pieces of a banana peel on the sides  of the 
                pot . 
                    
                 We then left them on the windowsill of an emty room .
                 Now the only thing left to do is to wait and see!
