Science Fact Check.  After yesterday’s Science Walk, did you list these 5 requirements of a plant to live and grow?  

Air 

Light 

Water 

Nutrients from soil 

Room to grow 

Have you started growing something at home over the holiday?  If so, make sure you give it all 5 of these things to help it live and grow.  We would welcome photos for the Year 3 gallery of you and your plants now and as they grow. 😊 Might we even see a photo of some of them on a dinner plate eventually? That would be amazing. It could be as a vegetable—or maybe as a Master Chef (non-edible) garnish! 

Today you are going to do 2 dissections. 

1. To investigate the way in which water is transported in plants (before lunch). 

2. To find the parts of a flower (after lunch). 

For the 1st dissection, open the document ‘Water transportation in plants’.  Dissect your dandelion to find the xylem.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntp0l5JRNZM
