MARIAN'S EXPERIMENT

Marian came home from school. She went to the kitchen and saw her mother cooking.

“Mama, do we have mongo seeds?” asked Marian. “I will do an experiment.”

“Yes, we have some in the cabinet,” answered Mama.

Marian got some seeds and planted them in a wooden box. She watered the seeds every day. She made sure they got enough sun. After three days, Marian was happy to see stems and leaves sprouting. Her mongo seeds grew into young plants.
