Hydroponic Gardening

In Science we’re learning about parts of a plant and in Social Studies we learned about geography and natural resources, so we’re going to experiment with hydroponic gardening.

The word “hydro” is Greek (proper noun) and means water. “Ponos” means labor. Hydroponics is a way of growing plants without soil, but rather with a nutrient-rich water. We’ll be making our own nutrients from crushed egg shells.

We also discussed why some people may use hydroponics rather than traditional gardening methods. Share what you’ve learned.
