This afternoon, Year 1 have been exploring the names of various parts of a plant and the different stages of plant growth. They created their own animations on Purple Mash to illustrate these stages and then played them back to enjoy watching their plant grow. They absolutely blew us away and managed to create some exceptional animations of a seed developing a stem and roots, growing into a sapling, growing leaves and a stronger stem, starting to bud and then finally flower. The children even added visiting bees to their plants to pollinate them and  seeds dropping off their plants to form new ones. Amazing work, Year 1!
