Plants in IB PYP Grade 1 Science
In IB PYP Grade 1 Science, Plants gives emerging learners (ages 6–7) the chance to practise naming the main parts of a plant, learning what plants need to grow and observing how seeds grow into plants.
PYP learning is inquiry-based: children explore ideas through questions, play and real-life examples, so worksheets and games here are designed to be short, clear and encouraging.
What learners practise
- Naming the main parts of a plant
- Learning what plants need to grow
- Observing how seeds grow into plants
- Noticing the many ways we use plants
For students
Work through the worksheets and interactive activities at your own pace. Check your answers, then redo anything that felt tricky and explain each answer in your own words.
For parents
Sit with your child for the first few questions and ask “how do you know?”. Praise effort and keep sessions short.
For teachers
Use plants activities as a starter, homework or retrieval practice, and mix free and premium resources to differentiate.
Link every fact to an everyday example. Ideas you can connect to real life are much easier to remember and apply.
Quick answers
Who is the Plants page for?
It is for IB PYP Grade 1 Science learners, typically aged 6–7, and for the parents and teachers who support them.
Are plants resources free?
Many are. Each resource shows a clear Free or price label, so you can start with the free ones and add premium resources when you need more practice.
How should I use these resources?
Pick one resource, complete it without help first, then check and correct. Repeating this little and often is more effective than one long session.
