Students were placed into teams of three and given a slice of bread to place into a zip lock bag. We then discussed the different locations around the school where they could leave their investigation for a week to investigate if bread mould would grow.
Investigation question
Do you think bread mould would prefer warm, cold, moist or dry environments?
During the week the students were encouraged to make daily observations. At the conclusion of the activity the students completed the remainder of the worksheet.
BTW - in Australia we spell mould with a ‘u’. The document is in Microsoft Word so you can change the spelling to ‘mold’.
