Discovering plants

Whoops of, "This is so much fun!" can be heard coming from Room 13 these days.  The children have found true joy in learning through our study of plants.

Here are some of their discoveries:
There are baby plants inside of seeds.
Acorns are actually seeds and sprout just like a bean seed.
Roots are hairy.
Plants don't turn green until they sprout.
Too much water is not good for a plant.

In addition to every child observing the seeds that they planted last week, we have begun an experiment for our whole class to watch.  
Our question: Will our plants survive without water, air or sun?
Our hypothesis: We think the plants will not survive.
