28. Characteristics of living things

29. Draw this picture in your notebook. Answer the questions below. Let’s draw a plant from what you remember, don’t forget the roots, stem, and leaves.

30. Look at your stem, where is it growing? Up, down, or sideways?

34. Study the pictures

35. Look at this carrot. What shape is it? Long, short, thick, thin? Do you think it grows above or below the ground? Why?

36. Does it look like a root or a stem? Why do you think plants have this part under the soil?"

37. Look at the cactus. Where are its leaves? Could these sharp spines be its leaves? Why do you think cactus leaves look like this? How might this help the plant live in a hot place?

38. How are their plant parts help them survive in their surroundings?

39. Discover the many shapes of plant parts and why they are different. These shapes help plants survive in different places

40. Underground Lesson Language Practice The roots of this plant grow underground. They are under the soil.

41. Why do you think roots grow underground? What do they get from the soil?

42. Spikes The roots of this plant grow underground. They are under the soil.

46. Instructions: 1. Observe the eggplant shown on the screen. What plant parts other than the roots, stems and leaves do you also see? Encircle it in the illustration on the next page and name it. Strategy: Picture analysis

47. 2. Let us identify some plant parts that are quite different from what we usually see. A. Observe the cactus plant. What plant parts can you see? Draw connecting lines to match their parts.

48. B. Observe the growing carrot. What are the plant parts that you can identify? Draw connecting lines to match their parts.

49. C. Observe the lotus plant growing in a pond. What plant parts can you identify? Draw connecting lines to match their parts.

50. 1. Pick up a potted plant. Try to tilt the potted plant on one side. Did the plant fall to the ground? Why do you think so? What keeps it from falling from the pot? Guide Questions:

51. 2. If sunlight is only on one side of the plant and dark on the other side, what does the stem do so that leaves can get as much light as possible? Guide Questions:

52. 3. Plants make food using the energy from the Sun. What plant part gets this energy? 4. Which plant part of the cactus protects it from animals? How does it protect the cactus? Guide Questions:
