Science - Sunflowers

What do you know about the different parts of plants?
Today we are learning to name and describe different parts of a flowering plant.


The plant we are looking at today is a sunflower. At school we have been planting our own sunflowers. You might want to have a go at planting your own sunflower at home. Don't worry if it's too tricky to do at home as we'll plant lots of sunflowers in our school playground for you to look at when we all come back to school. 
You will need:
  • plastic cup
  • compost
  • garden sunflower seeds
  • large flowerpot (for later)

Now, have a go at drawing and labelling a sunflower like mine;
