Plants are living things. Plants need water, air, nutrients and sunlight to grow. There are two main kinds of plants: Plants with flowers any plant with flowers and fruit trees. Plants without flowers pine trees, mosses and ferns. Parts of a Plant A plant has different parts that help it live and grow. Roots The roots help to keep the plant in the soil. The roots also take in water and other nutrients from the soil that the plant needs. Stem Stems carry water and other nutrients to the leaves. Stems help the plant stand up straight and tall so that it can reach the sunlight it needs. Leaves Green plants make their own food in their leaves. They use sunlight, air, water and nutrients from the soil to make their own food. Flower The flower makes seeds. The seeds are scattered by air or water to new places and grow into new plants. Flowers come in different colors, shapes, and sizes. A Plant’s Life Cycle A life cycle is how a living thing grows and changes overtime. seed seedling young plant adult plant flower fruit tree pine tree moss seedling young plant adult plant 1. 2. © Copyright NewPath Learning.

Land Habitats Woodland Forest Arctic Arctic Desert Rainforest What is a habitat? A habitat is a place where plants and animals live. A habitat can be in water or on land; and can be very large or very small. A habitat provides food and shelter for all living things that live there. Deserts are very dry places they get little or no rain. Deserts can be very hot in the day and very cold at night. The ground of a desert is often rocky or sandy. Plants such as cactuses and animals such as snakes live here. The Arctic is a very cold, windy, and usually very snowy place that is close to the North Pole! Many animals, such as polar bears, that live in the Arctic have thick fur and a lot of body fat to keep them warm. Rainforests are very thick, warm, and wet forests. Tropical rainforests receive a lot of rain every year. Animals such as red-eyed tree frogs, spider monkeys and humming birds live here. A woodland forest is land covered with trees and shrubs. Animals such as bears, deer and rabbits live here. © Copyright NewPath Learning. All Rights Reserved. 94-4203 www.newpathlearning.com

Living things have different life cycles. A life cycle is the way a living thing grows and changes. Plants and animals change during their lives. 1 2 3 4 How Do People Grow and Change? Humans change as we grow. People are different from each other in some ways. Some are short, some are tall, and some have brown eyes while others have blue eyes. Some children may look like their parents in various ways. How Do Plants Grow and Change? A Plant’s Life Cycle seed newborn newborn baby toddler child adult kitten young cat adult cat seedling How Do Animals Grow and Change? A cat is a mammal. Most young mammals grow inside the body of their mother. Young mammals drink milk from their mother. A plant’s life cycle starts as a seed. The seed germinates and starts to grow. The stem breaks through the soil and grows into a seedling. The seedling continues to grow and becomes an adult plant. © Copyright NewPath Learning.

Reptiles Reptiles have scales to protect their body. Reptiles are born on land and usually live near water. Reptiles are cold-blooded; which means their body temperature changes according to the environment. Some reptiles lay eggs from which their babies hatch. Reptiles lay their eggs on land. Amphibians Amphibians are special because they spend part of their life in the water and part on land. All amphibians begin their life in water with gills and even tails. They use their gills to breathe. As they grow, they develop lungs, which is what they use to breathe on land. They grow legs to use on land too! Most amphibians can walk but can also swim.

Summer It is summer in this part of the Earth because the Earth is tilted toward the Sun. Fall It is fall in this part of the Earth because the Earth is beginning to tilt away from the Sun. Winter It is winter in this part of the Earth because the Earth is tilting away from the Sun. The Sun The Sun is a star. It is made of hot, glowing gases. The Sun gives Earth light and heat. All living things can live on Earth because of the Sun. The Sun is much larger than the Earth. The Earth The Earth spins on its axis. This spinning is called a rotation. Earth makes a complete rotation each day. This rotation causes day and night here on Earth. The Four Seasons The Earth also moves around the Sun. It takes the Earth one year to go around the Sun one time. The Sun lights one side of the Earth at a time.
