Tomato Plant Project

I hope all the tomato plants made it home and the experiment has been set up by changing the variable listed on your plan for your experimental plant.

Students should be filling in their height graph daily when they water and turn their plant.

Students who are drawing pictures for their longer observations must observe on three days in addition to the first one we did in class. They should do these observations on May 14, 18, and 22.  Students who are taking photographs of their plants must do four in addition to the first one we did in class.  They should do these observations on May 13, 16, 19, 22.  The date on the rubric had to be adjusted because the plants came a little earlier for our first observation.

We talked in class on Friday about what makes a quality observation.  They should have 3-4 details under each section with colored, detailed pictures of each of their plants.

I hope everyone has fun taking care of their plants.  Hopefully you will all have yummy tomatoes to eat during the summer.
