Day 3: Parts of a Plant 🌻
Foundation Stage Science | Apex Institute of Maths and Sciences
🎯 1. Concept: Every Part has a Job
Just like your body has hands to pick up things and legs to walk, a plant has different parts that do special work to keep it alive.
The Main Jobs:
- Roots: These stay under the ground. They drink water from the soil and hold the plant firmly so it doesn’t fall over.
- Stem: This is like a straw! It carries water from the roots up to the leaves and helps the plant stand tall.
- Leaves: These are the “Chef” of the plant. They use sunlight to make food.
💡 2. The Plant “Chef” Trick
How do plants eat? They don’t have mouths! Instead, their Leaves catch sunlight like a solar panel to cook their own food.
*The roots “drink,” the stem “carries,” and the leaves “cook”!
🌍 3. Science in Our Daily Life
Example: Have you ever seen a flower in a vase? If the water runs out, the flower wilts. This is because the Stem has no water to “drink” and carry up to the petals!
📝 4. Home Task: The Rainbow Celery
Observe how the stem works like a straw!
- Put a stalk of celery in a glass of water.
- Add 5 drops of red or blue food coloring to the water.
- Wait for one day.
- Observation: You will see the color moving up the Stem and into the leaves!
