Parts of a plant.

Hi second graders!!

We've been studying the different parts of a plant. Look at the picture:

Each part has its function. Let's see:

1. ROOTS: They are under the ground and absorb water and mineral from the soil.

2. STEM: It has branches and the branches have leaves. The stem carries water and mineral from the roots to the leaves.

3. LEAVES: The leaves make food for the plant.

4. FLOWERS: They are the reproductive part of the plant. Seeds form inside the flower. Fruits form inside the seed.

Welcome, everybody

Welcome, time to party

Welcome, everybody

Welcome, to the autumn harvest

Seasons come seasons go

Autumn winds start to blow

When them leaves start to fall,

Change in colours and all

See them dance through the breeze

Catch them if you please…

Hey, hey, hey, hey,

Welcome, everybody…

Autumn skies they will glow

Yeah we like it

So many colours on show

Yeah we like it

As we see the squirrels run,

Hiding acorns having fun

Children coming out to play…

With conkers every day

Hey, hey, hey, hey,

Welcome, everybody…

Bring a marrow and come

Hey!

Bring some apples and come

Hey

Bring the nuts and come

Hey!

Bring all the crops and come, come, come

Hey!

Bring a pumpkin and come

Hey!

Bring some berries and come

Hey!

Hey!

Bring all the crops and bring all the crops and

When we see the haverts moon

Yeah we like it

All the crops will come soon

Yeah we like it

See them birds flying high

Heading south through the sky

As they fly to migrate

Hedgehogs hibernate

Hey, hey, hey, hey,

Welcome, everybody…
