1. Ask children to look at the stem and branches of plant much smaller than them, plant that are about their size and plants which are much taller than them. Feel their stem and try to bend gently to see if they are tender or hard. Ask them to categorize the plants based on that.

2. We would require a glass, water, red/ Blue ink and a soft stem. Pour water to fill one-third of the glass. Add a few

drops of red/blue ink to the water. Cut the base of the stem and put it in the glass

3. For conducting this activity require two pots, some soil, khurpi (for digging), blade or a pair of scissors and water. This activity is to be done in groups of 4-5 students. Select two plants of the same kind from an open ground and dig them out with roots. Take care that their roots do not break. Plant one of them in pot A . Cut off the roots from the other plant and plant it in pot B Water them regularly. Observe the plants after a week.

4. Collect the different types of plants and separate them into 2 groups. In group A put that those have tap root system and in group B those that have fibrous roots. Look at the leaves of plants in both the groups and write down the types of venation do they have.
