In order for a seed to survive and grow into a strong plant, it needs water, light, suitable temperature, air and time. What things does a plant need to grow? How seeds and bulbs grow When seeds start to grow, this is called … Germination To germinate, seeds need : Warmth Air (Oxygen) Water Seeds don’t need light … This is because they have a store of food inside them already What next? Once the stem breaks through the soil it is then a plant. How plants grow A plant A living thing that usually grows from the ground The main parts of a plant Flowers Leaves Stem Roots To grow and survive, plants need Light Water Carbon dioxide This is so they can make their own food. Warmth This is because if plants get too hot or cold they will die What next?

Flowers produce the seeds that form new plants. 6 Petals Attracts pollinators using their bright colours or unusual shapes. 7 Trunk The stem of a tree, from which its branches grow. 8 Bulb The round underground part of a plant that contains food for the plant, for example, an onion bulb, a tulip bulb, a daffodil bulb. 9 Germinate This is when a seed begins to grow using its stored food, and puts out roots and shoots Interesting books… Year 2: Science - Plants
