Worksheet Overview

Do you know what plants need to grow? The most important things are:

 

  Watering can pouring water

Water

 

Plants need different amounts of water. Some need more than others. For example, cacti don't need very much.

 

  Sun

Light

 

Plants use sunlight to make themselves energy. Leaves soak up sunlight to be able to do this.

But remember, that seeds and bulbs have their own store of energy, so light isn't needed until the plant begins to grow shoots.

 

 Thermometer

Warmth

 

Plants need different temperatures to survive and grow healthily. No plants can survive in freezing temperatures.
