Growing a Plant
Growing a plant is both an interesting and easy hobby.
What causes a seed to grow into a large, green table plant? Young learners will find out how plants grow from seeds just by getting sunlight, water and kindness. Children will discover every stage of a plant's life cycle with the help of fun experiments, songs and activities.
What Knowledge Will Students Gain?
A healthy plant forms when seeds receive sunlight, water, soil and air.
This section will look at roots, stems, leaves, flowers and talk about the functions of every part.
There are four steps in a plant's life cycle: seed, sprout, seedling and full-grown plant.
Care for your Plant: Try to water carefully, leave it in sunlight and watch it get bigger over many days!
Entertaining Activities to Engage a Child Are:
Putting real seeds in cups and watching them develop
Draw-and-track journals for keeping observations of plant changes
Songs and rhymes that deal with plants and the environment
Garden and flower stories from books
