"Dragons, We Shrunk the 5th Graders!"
The 5th graders used virtual reality to shrink themselves so they could explore a backyard full of plants going through the process of photosynthesis. While exploring, they were able to gather evidence to explain what plants need for growth. Using energy from the sun, plants take in carbon dioxide and water to produce a sugar called glucose. The plants use this glucose to grow and produce food for animals and humans to eat. When they were finished exploring, the 5th graders had to use the evidence they collected to produce a written claim, evidence, and reasoning statement.
