Pupils needing extra support

Could be given pre-prepared word cards (roots, stem, leaves and flower) to stick on to their work for task one; could create a flowering plant using craft materials (string for the roots, a straw for the stem, green paper for the leaves and a muffin case for the flower); could perform a non-speaking part in task two, such as pretending to be the sun or the soil).

Pupils working at greater depth

Should include sentences to explain the role of each plant part for task one; should be encouraged to learn their lines by heart for task two; could demonstrate prior knowledge by including additional information in task two (e.g. I am a deciduous leaf; I use sunlight to make food which provides energy for the plant; I take in carbon dioxide).
