This editable differentiated lesson pack focuses on the conditions that plants need to grow well. These are tested using a simple comparative investigation. Children revisit what seeds and bulbs need to start growing, then explore what plants need to stay healthy as they grow. They set up a comparative test and observe the differences over time. The lesson strengthens enquiry skills through predicting, comparing and explaining what helps plants grow best.
