Planting a sunflower seed is a prerequisite to using this resource
The presentation is in A4 size, so the worksheets can be printed directly from the PowerPoint.
I have included a free song from the musical “The Sunflowers” which could be a starting point. There are 10 different areas in the Sunflower Project. The one here concentrates on data collection from the moment the sunflower seed is planted. Data is collected about growth and recorded on the bar charts supplied. There are also data to be collected about favorite garden and wild flowers.
The finished work can be easily trimmed and placed into A4 books.
The sunflower Project starts with the sowing of the sunflower seed and follows the observation through until Harvest. Each resource covers a curriculum area. The assumption is that natural science knowledge is absorbed through these various activities.

A cross curricular creative approach to discovering the life cycle of a sunflower
Suitable Ages 6 to 8 All the resources have been written to engage the child on an imaginative, creative and scientific approach to learning. The finished work can be trimmed along the guidelines and be pasted in an A4 booklet with the minimum of fuss. The Power Points are in A4 size and can be printed out for the worksheets. To get the best from the resources, it is hoped that it would all start with the planting of a sunflower. This is echoed in the little musical which follows a class as it sows the seed. (Words etc. are already on a PowerPoint and no specialist knowledge is necessary) The observation section is for each season. RE and data is for Autumn. Literacy for Spring. The rest of the sheets can be done in any order.
Maths and literacy in the Sunflowers
Suitable ages 6 to 8 When trimmed and pasted into an A4 book, these worksheets create an effective and colourful display. The poetry is humorous and engaging. The literacy is mainly for the spring to coincide with the seed sowing. The shape and symmetry are colourful . The data is best done in the Autumn term but some sheets can be done at any time Differentiation is there whenever possible.
