Design a seed packet

Another seed from a newly discovered plant . . . an activity that stimulates discussion (on what seeds need to grow), gives the children an opportunity for writing instructional texts and requires creative thinking in the design of the packet.

Pupils will create their own seed packet and plant which will help them to understand what plants need to live and grow well. This activity provides pupils with an opportunity to use their knowledge and understanding of plants and how they grow. It also gives them opportunities to apply what they have learnt in other curriculum areas with multiple cross-curricular links (Geography, Literacy, D&T and Art).

This activity would work well as prequel to the Design a seed resource.
