New plants grow in this way:
   1. A seed falls on the ground.
   2. A tiny root and a tiny stem grow.
   3. The roots and the stem grow bigger.
   4. The first leaves start to grow.
   5. The tree is big and has flowers.
   6. The flowers die and the fruits grow.

Plants

- What is a plant?
- A plant is a living thing.

- What does a plant need to grow?
- A plant needs sunlight, air, water and nutrients from the soil to grow well.

- What is the job of the different parts of plants?
- Roots take up water and nutrients from the soil. They also keep the plant steady and upright in the soil.
The stem carries water and nutrients to different parts of the plant.
The leaves make food by using light from the sun, along with carbon dioxide from the air and water. This process is called photosynthesis.
