Clear Plastic Cup,
Black construction Paper,
Paper Towels,
Bean seeds
Use a clear plastic cup that is 6-12 inches tall.
Cut black construction paper so that it fits inside, up against the cup walls.
Fill the center with wadded up paper towels.
"Plant" bean seeds between the cup walls and construction paper, about 1/2 - 2/3 down. Water the paper towels and keep MOIST.
Bean seeds will grow and you can view root growth, what happens to seeds, etc.
They can grow quite large and will be fine as long as you keep paper towels moist.
