What I’ve learned
in Nature detectives
We grew sunflowers
here are instructions
• First we got a plastic cup to use as a plant
pot.
• Second we got a trowel and put soil in our
cup .
• Next we made a hole in our soil not too
deep though.
• Then we put our seed in the hole and
covered it up .
• Last we watered our sunflower and hoped
for it to grow.
Bring a plant to school day
• On bring a plant to school day we all got
asked to bring a plant to school so we
could plant them in our planter .
It was a success we got lots and lots of
different types of flowers trailing ,
tall,small, etc.
• But sadly when we planted them within a
few days they had died .
Parts of a plant
• 1. FLOWER The flower makes seeds for the
plant
. • It contains thin tubes for carrying food, minerals
and water.
• 3. LEAVES leaves make food for the plant .
They take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen
into the air.
• 4. ROOTS the roots soak up water and minerals.
They also store food for the plant .
Brick investigation
• During our topic Mrs Earl gave each of our
groups a brick. We chose a place to put
our brick and hoped some minibeasts
made there home there. This went on for
five weeks. We got lots of insects .
Can you grow grass on a brick ?
• We had a chart and you put your name
down if we thought yes grass will grow on
the brick or no grass will not grow on the
brick . THE ANSWER WAS YES
A life cycle of a ladybug
Facts about a spider
• We all researched a mini beast in partners.
• I researched a spider with Nathan
• Patu Manplesi is a tiny spider, you could fit ten
on a pencil.
• All spiders have eight legs
• Male house spiders are usually seen more than
females.
• Spiders are part of a group called Arachnids .
A very intresting fact
• Spiders cant fly but they can balloon
• They pull out silk untill the breeze lifts
them into the sky. Most don’t travel high or
far, but some have been seen at abiout
10,000 feet and on ships more than 200
miles from land. Most ballooners are very
small spiderlings but ,adult spiders have
been captured by planes with nets.
