The Year Two Science Experiment

The Year Two Class planted sunflowers in the full sun and shady spots.  All of the sunflowers received approximately the same amount of water.  We also put similar amounts of fertilizer on the flowers.  The children learned that the sunflowers which were in full sun grew the tallest and had the most blooms.  They estimated the flowers to be around 2 1/2 metres tall.  The flowers which received the smallest amount of sun grew the least - not even a metre.  THERE WAS ONLY ONE BLOOM!
