🌿 Leaves: These are like solar panels that catch sunlight
🌸 Flowers: The colorful parts that help make seeds
🌱 Stem: The plant's support system that moves water and nutrients
🌳 Roots: The underground anchors that absorb water and minerals]]> 2025-01-27 16:01:10 UTC https://padlet.com/eferiz/trua5fgqiakv690g/wish/3305850924 eferiz https://padlet.com/eferiz/trua5fgqiakv690g/wish/3305850925
- Chlorophyll: The green pigment that helps make food
- Stomata: Tiny holes that let air in and out
- Veins: Transport tubes that move water and nutrients

These parts work together to make food through photosynthesis!]]> 2025-01-27 16:01:10 UTC https://padlet.com/eferiz/trua5fgqiakv690g/wish/3305850925 eferiz https://padlet.com/eferiz/trua5fgqiakv690g/wish/3305850928 - Absorb water and minerals from soil
- Store food for the plant
- Come in different types (tap roots and fibrous roots)

Think of roots like drinking straws that help plants get their water!]]> 2025-01-27 16:01:10 UTC https://padlet.com/eferiz/trua5fgqiakv690g/wish/3305850928 eferiz https://padlet.com/eferiz/trua5fgqiakv690g/wish/3305850932
☀️ Sunlight
💧 Water
🌬️ Air (Carbon Dioxide)
🌱 Nutrients from soil
🌡️ Right temperature

Without any of these ingredients, plants can't grow properly!]]> 2025-01-27 16:01:11 UTC https://padlet.com/eferiz/trua5fgqiakv690g/wish/3305850932 eferiz https://padlet.com/eferiz/trua5fgqiakv690g/wish/3305850934
- Minerals and nutrients
- Space for roots to grow
- Air pockets for root breathing
- Water storage

Different plants like different types of soil. Some like it sandy, others like it with lots of clay!]]> 2025-01-27 16:01:11 UTC https://padlet.com/eferiz/trua5fgqiakv690g/wish/3305850934 eferiz https://padlet.com/eferiz/trua5fgqiakv690g/wish/3305850937
