How do I use this activity?

The Hands-On Education website offers a variety of plant-related activities that meet the requirements of the National Curriculum of England for Art and Science. In one such activity, children can identify the trunk of trees as part of their structure by rubbing the bark and creating textures and patterns.

The website also offers resources for other topics such as "my healthy body", "flying machines" and "weather". Teachers and parents can find videos, activity sheets and activity plans to support children in their learning journey.

To access these resources, interested parties can create a free account on the website. With a wide range of subjects to choose from, planning your day will be made easier with the activities provided on Hands-On Education.
