62 Plants: Supplemental Guide 2C | Plant Parts

Reviewing the Read-Aloud 10 minutes

What Have We Learned?

• Remind students that they heard about plant parts. Using a potted
  plant, point out the basic parts of plants—seeds, stems, leaves, and
  flowers. Remind students that some parts are underground, or under
  the soil, like the seeds when they are planted and the roots.


• Have students use Response Card 1 to tell their partner about the
  parts of a sunflower.
  Songs and Chants


• Use the Songs and Chants for Plant Parts to review plant parts. These
  songs can be sung to the tune of “I’m a Little Teapot.”
  Note: Prior to singing, you may choose to have students identify
  different parts of their bodies as plant parts. For example, their legs
  can be the roots, their torso can be the stem, their arms can be the
  leaves, and their head can be the flower. Students can move their
  corresponding body part when they sing about that plant part.
