EXPECTATIONS

at the end of this unit most children will:

• recognise that different plants and animals live in the local environment and name some of them; know that flowering plants produce seeds which grow into new plants; describe what they observe as new plants grow; record observations in tables, using these to draw conclusions

some children will not have made so much progress and will:

• recognise that different plants and animals live in the local environment and name some of them; know that plants produce seeds; make observations of plants and animals, recording these, with help, in tables

some children will have progressed further and will also:

• suggest reasons why different plants and animals are found in the different environments
