Year 2 Rocket Science!

Today our rocket science seeds were sown!

Year 2 at Oakwood are part of a national science experiment whereby we have two packets of rocket seeds, one packet has travelled to The International Space Station and back to Earth and the other packet has stayed on Earth. We will be growing the seeds over 35 days and we will be recording all of the results on a chart to find out how much the seeds have grown and how many leaves are produced.

The aim of this experiment is to find out if life could survive on another planet.

 We will update the blog to let you know the progress of the seeds.

Very exciting. Science is my favourite subject! I've been following Tim Peake's updates on the ISS and read about this experiment.
I can't wait to hear what you find out!
