Science : Land and Water Plants

Summary

In this lesson, the speaker guides students through the topic of plant habitats and varieties. They explore where plants can be found and how they differ, covering examples like land plants (e.g., rose, sunflower), water plants (e.g., water lily, hydrilla), and plants that grow on trees or buildings. The lesson highlights different plant habitats, emphasizing that some plants live in deserts (e.g., cacti), while others thrive underwater. The explanation is enriched with visuals from a science book to enhance understanding. The session concludes with a recap of the discussed topics.
