  2. Teaching Resources Click the documents below to view the teaching resources used in the teaching of this learning project: Project Overview: Pupils were asked to grow broad beans in class; they were responsible for feeding the beans, recording the rate of growth and discussing their findings with their peers. This linked with the class topic of Living Things. We considered a range of factors which would influence the growth of the beans; for example temperature, sunlight etc. This provided us with the opportunity to look at a range of mathematical and scientific skills including problem solving, measuring. For example in measuring we explored the relationship between volume and capacity and discussed how volume can be measured accurately. Hence we used a range of scientific equipment. Pupils were encouraged to record their findings in graphs, tables. Pupils also had the opportunity to visit the University of Dundee Botanic Gardens. Documents
