Does a plant need soil to grow?

One of our first explorations in our plant unit is to see if plants need soil to grow. Before we did the activity, we asked the kids to make a prediction of what would happen. It was split pretty evenly with students who thought the plant would grow and others who thought it wouldnt. Students were also allowed to decide how much water would be poured into their baggies, with a maximum amount of up to 50 mL. Our baggies are all over the room in different locations! We will be observing them every few days to take note of the changes that have happened. We will keep you posted on the results!
