Germination is a process in which a seed develops into a new plant. Seed germination is an essential process in which scholars observed germinated seeds and had informative discussions among all. Students of Grade V performed experiments at home to contemplate how seeds sprout and then grow in a tiny sapling. Our young learners worked intelligently and creatively to make beautiful crafts to depict the different stages of seed germination. They expressed themselves in a positive, tangible, and meaningful way by presenting seed germination in a transparent jar. While discovering they made predictions, comparisons developed some new vocabulary, and most importantly marvelled at how miraculous the whole thing is. It was playful and the simplest way to provide hands-on experience to learn about seed germination.
