How do I use this activity?

The Hands-On Education website offers a great way for children to learn about different topics related to the national curriculum of England. One of the topics that they offer is the study of plants, which includes three different plant-related topics: Plants Around Us, How Plants Grow, and Seeds and Lifecycles. Each topic includes a variety of curriculum standard activities that can be used in the classroom or at home for home-schooled children.

In addition to the plant-related topics, Hands-On Education covers a range of other topics that meet most points of the national curriculum for Year 2. Their resources are a great tool for teachers or parents who are teaching children about topics like "my healthy body", "flying machines", or "weather". Hands-On Education provides a range of resources such as videos, activity sheets, and easy-to-use activity plans to support children in their learning journey.
