Reading

Young plants often have no leaves and are very delicate. They soon grow leaves, which will help them get energy from the sun.

Young Plants

Plants need space to grow, they cannot live too close to neighbors because of competition for food and sunlight. Plants grow best in soil with many nutrients.

Success for Plants

Germination is when the seed begins to grow. The seed opens and tiny roots reach into the earth. The first stems, known as 'shoots', follow the light out of the soil.

Germination

Like humans, plants grow, reproduce and die in a never-ending cycle. Let's look at each stage in more detail!

Circle of Life

The Plant Cycle

I get the tomato seeds for my garden from Italy. The best tomatoes in the world, and nobody else grows them here!

Animals can disperse seeds by moving them, like when squirrels collect acorns or eating them. The seeds are excreeted far away from the plant. The wind disperses seeds a long way away, too, expanding the area where the species can be found. Humans plant seeds in gardens and farms. Insects and birds can also help disperse seeds.

Seed Dispersal

With a little luck and the right conditions, plants will eventually grow to their full height. After they grow leaves, they will begin to make seeds of their own. These seeds can be spread many ways, known as dispersal.

Mature Plants

The Plant Cycle

• Farming animals uses a lot of resources and can damage ecosystems.
• Some people believe it's unkind to raise animals in captivity, or as a food source.
• Meat can be very expensive; some people cannot afford to eat meat.
• In some religions people avoid products from certain holy animals, and in others, people are entirely vegetarian.

Eating a vegetarian diet can be healthy at any age, but people don't always choose this for health reasons. Here are some top reasons to eat vegetarian:

Why go veggie?

protein: dairy, soy, legumes and eggsiron: cereals and pastas, dark green vegetablescalcium: dairy, almonds, leafy vegetablesomega 3 fats: fish, oils, seaweed

To replace nutrients in a vegetarian diet, try these swaps:

How to Keep Healthy

Choosing not to eat meat doesn't mean you must survive on fruits and vegetables alone.Lacto-ovo vegetarians do not eat meat, but they do eat dairy products and eggs.Pescatarians tend to eat all of the above, plus fish and seafood.Vegans, on the other hand, eat only plant-based products.

Diet Choices

• Opinions
• Eye-catching headline
• Relevant images
• Long, detailed paragraphs
• Diagrams and statistics
• Clear introduction

Conjunctions

Phonics

Many one-syllable words add a consonent before /-ing/, /-er/, /-ed/ and /-est/ conjugations.

Double Consonants

In two-syllable words, where the vowel is short, we double up the consonant before the /-le/ ending.

When adding a suffix to a one-syllable word with a short vowel sound, double the consonant after the vowel.

1:1:1 Rule

Short Vowel Sounds

Many one-syllable words end in double consonants, so they are CVCC.
