Week 2 Of Plant Unit

On monday when I got back to school I looked at my plant. Guess what I saw? I saw that the plants in cells 1,2,3 were drooping and the of the plants color turned to dark green. Then when we watered the plant we did a lot to try to keep it alive. Then the next day they came back to life. Then we realized that some plants were dead and we couldn’t do anything so we just took the dead plants out of the cells. Then the next day all the plants were healthy. All the plants had different heights. Cell 1 has a plant 7cm tall. Cell 2 has a plant that is 5cm tall. Cell 3 has a plant that is 5cm tall and another that is 3cm tall. The manipulated during week 1 and 2 only had the coffee grinds in the cells as the soil and nothing has happened. I don’t think the coffee grinds will even grow myself.

Ms DeGrazia’s plant the no sunlight is growing but it isn’t really healthy. The leaves are yellow and the stem is white. At the beginning of the week the cells had the plants at the height of 3cm. Then later in the week the plants got taller and taller. The no sunlight has leaves but it doesn’t have flowers blooming like the controlled plant. Overall the plant is doing well.

My moon unit reflection

For all the 28 days iv’e been studying the moon I learned a lot. It was so cool to look at the moon every night and see the different phases of the moon. Every night I looked at the moon it was always in a different phase. When I started there was barely anything in the sky but in the middle was the full moon then the new moon again. During the unit Ms Kiley taught me a lot about the moon. Here is a fact I know about the moon the moon gets craters from space rocks floating around in space and thats what makes craters on the moon.
