How to Grow and Care for Plants

Find something growing in your garden or in the park during your daily exercise time – look at the grass or a flower– DON’T PICK IT! Leave it growing in the ground to show everyone you care for living things. Talk about what you know about plants. You could describe what it looks like or say how it has grown.

Challenge Choices

If you are a scientist you can use a computer to find out about flower grow using your knowledge of the story, ‘Jasper’s Beanstalk’ and by looking at videos on the internet like these:

If you are a singer you could learn a new song like this one and sing it to your family

If you are a dancer you could pretend you are a plant growing and move along with the music.

If you are an artist you could paint or draw a picture of a flower using the colours that you see. Look at the beautiful painting my daughter made below.

If you are a speaker you can use words to talk about what you have seen and learned. You could make a video describing your favourite flower and talk about how it grew.
