Future Botanists At Work
In 3rd grade, students are using their
observation skills to identify the structures (parts) of plants. As they observe, they try to determine the
function of each part. We will be learning
how the structures of plants and animals help them adapt and survive in
specific environments.
“I noticed that the red part had spikes. The spikes are to protect the plant from
herbivores.” -Braden
“We were observing how the green part of the plant was
smooth. We think that the green part
helps the plant take in the sunlight and make its own food.” -Leah
“Me and Julia were
describing the plants. We noticed that
in the flowers there was a little bit of water.
We noticed that the stem had little hairs on it.” -Vance
“I think the leaves are for getting energy for
the plant. The flowers are bright to
make the bees come.” -Julia
