Growing Wheat Berries in Drinking Straw


This morning, I saw this fabulous science project to grow seeds in drinking straw on the blog above.  I got so excited by this project that I brought DD1 to the Whole Foods Market to buy organic wheat berries.  When we go back to school, I am going to try out this project with my 4th grade students.  Science rocks!
Roll up a piece of paper towel into the straw. Add water to wet the paper towel.
Drop a wheat berry on top of the paper towel.

After one week of sprouting. Awesome!
