To encourage the children to suggest ‘how they know’ or ‘how they could find out/test their ideas’.

To understand that some of our food comes from plants, and even food that isn’t directly from plants depends on plants (food chain).

To classify plant foods as fruit, vegetable, tuber or root.

To understand that some plants have edible parts

To understand that people may only eat particular parts of a plant eg the roots, though a plant has many other parts that enable it to live and grow

To identify the different parts of plants we eat: stem, leaves, roots, seeds.

Science - Looking at Trees - KS2

356

Concepts:

Trees have different parts, both above and below ground all of which have their own names and have specific functions
Trees, both deciduous and evergreen, are a particular type of plant.
Trees have specific requirements in order to be able to grow.
A tree uses its leaves to make food .
Flowers are the reproductive part of the tree where pollination and fertilisation take place.
Seeds are found inside fruits. New trees grow from them. They are food for animals who accidentally sow them as they gather

them for food.

Seeds must get away from the parent tree so that there is space and light for them to germinate.

Science KS2 life cycle of a flowering plant

Click on the pictures above to see slide samples - allow time to load!

Explore the part that flowers play in the life cycle of flowering plants, including pollination, seed formation and seed dispersal.

Understand that plants have a lifecycle and that it is different from the lifecycle of animals.

Sequence the stages of a plant’s lifecycle.

know that flowering plants reproduce
know that the lifecycle of flowering plants includes pollination, fertilisation and seed production.

know that insects play a part in pollination
know the steps in the pollination cycle

A flower is the reproductive part of a plant.
Flowers may have both male and female parts or only one type.
The male part of the flower has anthers which contain pollen grains.
The female part has an ovary which contains ovules.
In pollination the pollen is transferred from the anthers to the ovary.
The joining of male and female cells is called fertilisation.

After fertilisation in a flowering plant, an ovule develops into a seed.
The seed contains an embryo (a new developing plant) and a store of food.
The ovary ripens into a fruit, carrying the seed or seeds.
