Content:
Plants are living organism that take in carbon dioxide and produce oxygen. They can manufacture their food by themselves. They beautify our environment and can be found everywhere.
🌱🌍🌿 Welcome to our Agricultural Science class, primary 1 students! Today, we’ll learn about the wonderful world of plants! 🌿🌍🌱
Plants are amazing living organisms that play a vital role in our lives and the environment. They are all around us, and they make our surroundings beautiful. Let’s discover some fascinating facts about plants! 🌺🌳🌻
Firstly, plants have a special ability to take in carbon dioxide from the air, just like we breathe in oxygen. They use a process called photosynthesis to convert carbon dioxide and sunlight into oxygen and glucose (their food). This oxygen is very important for us humans and animals to breathe and stay healthy. 🌬️🌿🍃
🌱🍃🌿 Plants are like little factories; they can manufacture their own food! Through photosynthesis, plants use sunlight as their source of energy to produce glucose. This glucose acts as their food, providing them with energy to grow, reproduce, and survive. Isn’t that amazing? They don’t need to go to the grocery store like we do! 🛒🌞🌱
Not only do plants take care of our oxygen needs and make their own food, but they also make our environment look beautiful and vibrant. Imagine a world without plants – it would be dull and lifeless. Plants come in various shapes, sizes, and colors. Some have lovely flowers, while others have towering trees. They add color and freshness to our surroundings, making the environment a more joyful place to live. 🌸🌼🌴
So, remember, plants are living organisms that take in carbon dioxide, produce oxygen, and make their own food through photosynthesis. They are not only essential for our survival but also enhance the beauty of our environment. Let’s appreciate and take care of our green friends! 🌿🌍💚
I hope you enjoyed our lesson on plants, primary 1 students! 🌱🌿🌺 If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Parts of a plant
Plant can be mainly divided into three parts which are
- The root
- The stem
- The leaves
Other parts include;
- The flower
- The seed
🌱🌿🌺 Let’s learn about the different parts of a plant, baby! Plants have various parts that help them grow and survive. Here are the main parts of a plant with emoji picture examples:
1. The root: 🌱 The root is like a plant’s anchor. It grows underground and holds the plant in place. It also absorbs water and nutrients from the soil, just like how you drink water and eat your food to grow big and strong! 🌱💦
2. The stem: 🌿 The stem is like a plant’s backbone. It supports the plant and helps it stand tall. It also transports water and nutrients from the roots to the rest of the plant. Just like your back helps you sit up straight and move around, the stem helps the plant stay upright and healthy! 🌿🌱
3. The leaves: 🍃 Leaves are like a plant’s lungs. They take in carbon dioxide from the air (just like you breathe in oxygen) and use sunlight to make food through photosynthesis. Leaves come in different shapes and sizes, and they provide shade for the plant. 🌿☀️
4. The flower: 🌺 Flowers are like a plant’s colorful dress. They are beautiful and attract insects like bees and butterflies. Flowers have petals, which can be different colors and shapes. Some flowers also have a sweet scent that smells nice. Flowers help plants reproduce by making seeds. 🌺🐝
5. The seed: 🌱 The seed is like a plant’s baby. It is usually found inside the flower. When the flower is pollinated, the seed develops and has everything the plant needs to grow into a new plant. It can be small and come in different shapes, like a tiny package of life! 🌱🌺🌿
So, baby, plants have different parts that work together to help them grow and survive. The roots absorb water, the stem supports the plant, the leaves make food, the flowers attract insects, and the seeds help make new plants. Isn’t it fascinating? 🌿🌸🌱

1. Types of soil: Soil is an important part of land, and there are three main types of soil:
– Sandy soil: 🏜️ Sandy soil is made up of larger grains of sand. It feels gritty and doesn’t hold water very well. It’s good for plants that like well-drained soil, such as cacti and succulents. 🌵🏜️💦
– Clayey soil: 🌧️🏞️ Clayey soil is made up of very fine particles. It feels sticky and holds water for a long time. It’s good for growing plants that like moist soil, such as rice and some flowers. 🌾🌺🌧️
– Loamy soil: 🌱 Loamy soil is a mixture of sand, silt, and clay. It has good drainage and holds water well. It’s great for growing a wide variety of plants, including vegetables and fruit trees. 🍅🌳🌿
2. Uses of land: Land has various uses that are important in our daily lives. Here are some examples:
– For farming: 🚜🌾 Land is used for farming, where crops are grown and animals are raised. Farmers cultivate the land to grow fruits, vegetables, and grains, which provide us with food. 🍎🥕🌽
– For sporting: ⚽️🏀 Land is used for sports activities. Fields and playgrounds provide space for us to play games like football, basketball, and other sports. It’s where we have fun and stay active! 🏟️⚾️🎾
– For housing: 🏠🏡 Land is used for building homes and communities. It’s where we live and create safe and comfortable spaces for ourselves and our families. Each house sits on a piece of land. 🏠🌳🏡
– For schooling: 🎒📚 Land is used for schools and educational institutions. It’s where we go to learn, grow, and acquire knowledge. Schools have buildings and playgrounds on land to provide a conducive environment for education. 🏫🌿🎓
– For construction: 🏗️🏢 Land is used for constructing buildings, bridges, roads, and other infrastructure. Construction workers use land to create structures that serve various purposes, such as offices, hospitals, and transportation systems. 🏢🚧🌆
