Term 3/4 Project- Sow, Grow and Farm
In the Sow, Grow and Farm project, your child will learn about allotments in the United Kingdom and how the government encouraged people to have them to support food rationing during the Second World War.

They will investigate the different ways that plants reproduce and will dissect flowering plants to identify the different structures.
