About this worksheet

A plant is made of parts that work together. Kindergartners may know the bright flower and green leaf but forget the roots, which are normally hidden below the ground. This worksheet asks about each part by its job and shows each answer as a picture: the roots that soak up water, the leaf that catches sunlight, the flower that makes seeds, and the sprout that a seed becomes. One question asks which picture is the seed you plant in the soil to grow a new plant.

Support pages mix each plant part with plain objects such as a ball or a rock. Standard and challenge pages mix plant parts with each other and with other things from a garden, so the child must really know the job. When discussing functions, use ‘helps’ rather than suggesting one part works alone. A leaf needs the roots and stem just as the roots depend on the rest of the plant.

What your child will learn

Point to roots, leaf, and flower
Match each part with a simple job
Know that a seed grows into a sprout
Know that you plant a seed to grow a new plant

NGSS standard: K-LS1-1

Worked example

The question asks which part soaks up water from the soil. The roots do that job, so the roots picture is the answer.

Common mistake

Choosing the part that looks the most familiar instead of the part that does the job.

Helpful hint

Think about where the part is and what job it does.
