1. The scientific method
Investigation: Are beans alive?
Beans, like other pulses, are seeds. We keep them
in sealed containers in the kitchen.
You have probably experimented with beans in
a glass with cotton wool and seen how they
germinate. However, the beans stored in the
kitchen don’t germinate.
You are going to write a scientific paper to explain why beans do not germinate when they are kept in
sealed containers, but they do outside.
