Make a giant mat to ‘walk through’ the parts of the flowering plant.
- A roll of cheap wall paper lining is great for this, or you can join together sheets of A3 paper.
- Then, draw out your flowering plant, paint or colour it in.
- Cut up some pieces of card and make labels with different coloured backgrounds for the male and female parts of the flower.
- Then lay your cards in the right places on your huge plant.
- How about using ‘Strawberry Shoelaces’ to use as arrows for your labels? These are great as you can eat them afterwards!
- Don’t have any paper? How about using chalk to draw your huge flower outside? Make sure you ask permission first though!
- You can then walk through your flowering plant and explain what happens in each place.
Fantastic!
