Hello everyone in groups 4 and 5,
In school we had just started a topic about plants and what they need to grow.
For a recap of what we have learnt so far watch this video and answer the questions shown below.
Why is the lady upset?
What did she do to the plants? (hint: she had four plants and she did something different with each one)
Why was this the wrong thing to do? (hint: the plant she put in the drawer could not get any light, what was the problem for the other three plants?)
What 5 things do plants need to survive?
Extra challenge. If you found that easy try this. Watch the video about Spanish Moss and answer the questions shown below.
Spanish Moss does not come from Spain. Where does it come from?
Is Spanish Moss actually a moss?
How does it reproduce? (Hint: how does it produce new plants – spores or seeds?)
What do some people think it is doing to the trees?
Spanish Moss is actually a type of flowering plant known as an air-plant or epiphyte. Air-plants don’t have roots so how do they get the water and nutrients they need to survive?
Is Spanish Moss a parasite to the trees it grows on or is it harmless?
In the video try to spot 4 different places where the moss was growing.
If you need any help leave a comment and I will write back to you.
Enjoy!
