Task

Hey class,

This month we are looking at plants and flowers. We are going to Plant our own surprise seeds and see what grows! We will record the growth each week with the digital camera. And at the end of the month we will put together slideshows to show the rest of the class how much they have grown... Oh what fun, we are going to help an alien to understand how plants are adapted to life on Earth. Choose different combinations of leaves, seeds and roots. Design a plant that is best adapted to surviving in a particular environment. Adapt the plant for survival in specific environments: mangroves, cool rainforest, mountain slopes and arid land. Find out why plant structures are suited to some environments (but not others).

If you aren't too tired we have another alien to help, you need to show him how much you know about plant life on Earth. Answer a quiz on plant structure and function. Identify labels for plant parts. Match each plant part with its job.

Start the adventure.
