About this worksheet
A Year 3 science knowledge check on what plants need, across four pages with an answer key. Pupils match roots, stem, leaves and flower to their jobs, then tick five needs from a list that also has fruit juice and a warm coat. Three gap-fills use air, nutrients and room. A bean plant investigation follows, with one plant in a dark cupboard and one on a sunny windowsill. The sheet ends by asking why a cactus and a water-lily need different amounts of water. It follows two England National Curriculum plant objectives.
