Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Parts of a Plant Worksheet | Twinkl Teacher-Made Resources
Let’s solve this step by step.

We are given a worksheet that asks us to match the parts of a plant — Roots, Leaves, Flower, and Stem — to their correct pictures. Then we’re shown an answer key on the right side that shows how they should be arranged in order from top to bottom: Flower, Leaves, Stem, Roots.

But wait — let’s think about how a real plant grows!

In nature:
- The roots are underground — they hold the plant in place and drink water.
- The stem comes up from the roots — it holds the plant upright.
- The leaves grow out from the stem — they catch sunlight to make food.
- The flower is usually at the very top — it helps the plant make seeds.

So if we were building a plant from the ground up (like planting it in a pot), the order from bottom to top would be:

1. Roots (at the bottom, in the soil)
2. Stem (growing up from the roots)
3. Leaves (attached to the stem)
4. Flower (on top)

But look at the “Answers” sheet — it shows the plant built from top to bottom as: Flower → Leaves → Stem → Roots. That means when you glue them into the pot, you start with the flower at the top, then leaves below it, then stem, then roots at the bottom inside the pot.

That makes sense for the worksheet — because you’re gluing pieces onto paper, not growing a real plant. So you arrange them visually from top to bottom like they appear on a real plant.

Now, looking at the left side (“Parts Of A Plant”), the boxes are listed in this order:
- Roots
- Leaves
- Flower
- Stem

But that’s NOT the correct visual order for assembling the plant from top to bottom.

The correct order to glue them (from top to bottom) should be:
1. Flower (top)
2. Leaves (below flower)
3. Stem (below leaves)
4. Roots (bottom, going into the pot)

So even though the list on the left says “Roots, Leaves, Flower, Stem”, that’s just labeling the parts — not telling you the order to assemble them.

The answer key on the right shows the correct assembly order: Flower → Leaves → Stem → Roots.

Therefore, to complete the task correctly, you should cut out each part and glue them into the pot in this vertical order (top to bottom):

Flower
Leaves
Stem
Roots

This matches the “Answers” page.

Final Answer:
Glue the parts in this order from top to bottom: Flower, Leaves, Stem, Roots.
