Teacher Notes (not visible to pupils)
Students will need a dry bean and one that has been soaked overnight. Students will try to peel off the seed coat of the dry bean. Some may be able to pick a little off. Then give them a bean that has been soaked. Students will easily peel off the seed coat. Have the students use a magnifying glass to find the little plant hidden inside the bean.
