Hello everyone. How are you all doing?
As always, if you have any questions or comments, please get in touch with your class teacher. We really do want to hear from you all as regularly as possible.
Here is your learning for today:

Topic – Parts of a plant part 3
In the Oak academy lesson last week, you looked at parts of a plant. Watch this YouTube video of a flower being taken apart to show all the different parts.
You could have a go at taking apart a lily to see all the different parts of it. However, please be aware that lily pollen is very poisonous to cats. If you have a cat, I would not recommend buying lilies. It is not toxic to humans. Also, the pollen can stain so take care not to get it on your clothes or other materials like curtains, sofas or table cloths.
Task: Have a go at making a flower, labelling its parts. Here are some examples.
You could have a go at making it out of household objects. Here’s one I made. You could test an adult afterwards to see if they can correctly label all the parts!
Or if you have some paper and craft materials handy, you could make it like this:
If you’d like some more practice, or would like to do a different activity, there is a worksheet with the parts to label , and/or a mix and match game you could play.
For the mix and match game, print out the sheets, cut them out then mix them up. Challenge yourself or someone else to match them all up correctly.
