This second-grade Why is Our Corn Changing? unit on plant growth starts off with students exploring the mystery of their harvest corn, something they initially see as decoration but suddenly begins to sprout to what appears to be leaves and roots. Disagreements about how the corn is growing sparks a series of questions and ideas for investigations related to what is causing this growth. 

A previous version of this unit (v1.0) was reviewed by the Science PRP and was posted here with a Example of High Quality NGSS Design If Improved rating. This unit has been revised based on that feedback.
