CHALLENGE: After viewing, children could plant seeds in pots.

Sunflowers are easy to grow and we could see who can grow the tallest sunflower!

When the seedlings grow, they could place the pots in different locations around the house and garden.

For example, they could put pots in sunnier and shadier positions. When watering the pots, they should give the same amount to each plant.

The children could measure the height of each plant at regular intervals and plot the results on a line graph.

You could ask the children to suggest reasons for any differences in growth between plants in different locations.

Art

Draw and colour pictures of spring flowers.  Look very carefully at the leaves and petals. Draw what you see, not what you think is there!  Look at Vincent van Gogh’s Sunflowers and how they have inspired other artists:https://artuk.org/discover/stories/seven-british-artists-inspired-by-van-goghs-sunflowers?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI7Ormqajl6AIVRLTtCh0yhAAUEAAYASAAEgKRCPD_BwE

Now, can you ‘innovate’ your pictures by changing the colours, shapes and sizes of your flowers? Why not stick your masterpieces in the window to make an art gallery for your neighbours to see?  You could make a rainbow of flowers to celebrate the NHS!
