Hello from the Garden (1 of 3)

Today, we’re going to look at Parts of a Plant, you may have done this particular exercise before. If so, treat it as revision.

So:

: Draw or cut out Parts of a Plant and label them : Roots, Stem, Leaf, and Flower ( see picture above).

: Write out the Function of each part (see below) and cut and paste it beside the appropriate part.

Roots: ( I am usually hidden underground).

(1)I take up water and food for the plant from the soil.

(2) I also attach the plant to the ground so it doesn’t fall over.

Stem:

(1) I am like a straw. I suck up water and food from the roots and carry it to the leaves.

(2). I also help the plant to stand tall.

Leaf:

(1). I make food for the plant using an amazing process called photosynthesis.

Flower:

(1). My job is to attract insects. The insects move pollen around to lots of flowers including me and this helps me make new seeds.
