Animal and Wind Pollination

Primary 7 have been learning about plants for their context for learning this term. They have been learning about the different parts of the plants, how the process of pollination works and different ways in which pollination can be carried out, by animals and by wind.

They have been looking at plants in their garden and identifying how they would have been pollinated using their learning to help them.

 

Arron Identified that the pine tree is wind pollinated and the pink and white flowers are insect pollinated. Well done Arron!
