parts of a plant lesson made for 1st grade students.

3. Parts of Plants Song (Tune: Muffin Man)
Do you know the parts of plants,
The parts of plants, the parts of plants?
Do you know the parts of plants
That make them grow and grow?
The roots, they hold the plant in place,
The plant in place, the plant in place.
The roots they hold the plant in place
Soak food and water, too.
The stem moves water up the plant,
Up the plant, up the plant.
The stem moves water up the plant
Brings water to the leaves.
The leaves soak up the rays of sun,
The rays of sun, the rays of sun.
The leaves soak up the rays of sun
And help the plant make food.
The flower grows into a fruit,
Into a fruit, into a fruit.
The flower grows into a fruit, Which holds the tiny seeds.
Now you know the parts of plants,
The parts of plants, the parts of plants,
Now you know the parts of plants,
That make them grow and grow.
