The Beaver Scout needs to:

·         decide what they are going to do and what is going to happen

·         grow something or investigate something and show how it works

·         share with the Colony what they have discovered.

Some examples of experiments could include:

·         growing a bulb in a container such as a bottle

·         growing mustard and cress on a potato or on blotting paper

·         showing how a torch works, for example, the on/off switch, batteries, bulb reflector

·         showing what a magnet can do, or making a game using magnets.
