Sprout Kids Project - photosynthesis

Next Generation Science Standards:

5 - LS1-1 : Support an argument that plants get the materials they need for growth chiefly from air and water. [Clarification Statement: Emphasis is on the idea that plant matter comes mostly from air and water, not from the soil.]

The "Sprout Kids" project was developed when I had a science class that did not have access to a traditional science lab. 

Here is a link on how to make the "Sprout" or Grass Heads!

REMINDER - In order to align the project with the standards, you must use sawdust instead of potting soil!
