Parts of a Plant Worksheet: Identify and Label!

How to use this worksheet

Look at the plant diagram together and point out its different parts before starting, naming each one aloud — root, stem, leaf, flower, and fruit. Have your child cut out the labels at the bottom of the page along the dotted lines. One label at a time, ask your child to decide which part of the plant it names and glue it next to the arrow pointing to that part. Once complete, review the labeled plant together, asking your child to name each part and, if they know, what it does for the plant.
