Today in inquiry we learned about what propagation of seeds are and what different kind of resources we can use with seeds.

Propagation of seeds meaning:  Propagation of seeds is the development of creating new plants with different resources ( seeds and other plant parts. )

Propagating a plant/seeding

Materials

1 plastic cup

1 pin/compass point or a sharp point

¼ dirt

Tea bags

seeding / seeds

Procedure

1. Firstly , grab your pin or your compass or any
2. sharp object you can get and poke holes at

            The bottom of your cup

     2.    Secondly , test your cup if it drains the water out

     3.    Thirdly ,layer the inside bottom of your cup with pebbles for you  drainage

     4.     And lastly create a hole that will fit your seed/

seeding, then add a little bit more dirt to

             Cover any exposed roots or your seeds .

Hypothesis foresee that my plant will propagate  and survive.

Do You Know How To Continue A Pattern?

Walht :  find and continue a pattern - recording result in a table

The information from the above models of the factories, was used and displayed in the table below.

Factory	1	2	3	4	5	6	7
number of grey squares	2	4	6	8	10	12	14
number of red squares	9	15	21	27	33	39	45
Number of all squares	11	19	27	35	43		59

 This information was then used to respond to the questions below.   

            Questions:

Be ready to answer questions like:  

How many grey squares do we need for the eighth factory? 14  

How many grey squares will we need for the hundredth factory? 200

What is the number pattern for the grey squares? X2

How many red squares do we need for the ninth factory? 57

If there are 14 grey squares how many red squares are there? 42

What is the number pattern for the red squares? Add 6 and to each and every answer.

How do we get the number of red squares for one factory from the number of red squares in the factory before that?  3

If we have to use exactly 36 red squares in making a factory, how many grey squares

would we need?  12

How many squares do we need altogether for the seventh factory? 59

What is the number pattern that we are getting for the total number of squares? add 9

If we had 35 tiles, which numbered factory could we make?  4

Which of these numbers are not a number of squares for one of these factories: 20, 21,

22, 23?  23

The data from the table was then copied and used to create the graph below .
