Today, we enjoyed spotting the features of a plant or tree.  We discussed the stem, leaves, root and flowers. We explored what they looked like on plants in our garden.
We also discussed features of a tree e.g. trunk, branch, crown, flowers and roots. We visited the Horse-Chestnut tree and we were amazed with the amount of leaves that it had grown in a couple of weeks. It now has beautiful white blossom flowers too.
