Plant needs worksheets for 2nd grade show that plants need light and water to grow, along with air, soil and room. Children read one class's table comparing a bean plant by a sunny window with one in a dark closet, a bar graph of new leaves on three pots watered differently, and one class's celery test where blue water climbed the stalk. Other passages explain why a geranium bends toward the window, how too much water hurts a houseplant's roots and why gardeners pull weeds, and a compare chart sets sun loving tomato plants against shade loving hostas (NGSS 2-LS2-1). There are 9 sheets, each with an answer key.
