MANY KINDS OF LEAVES

MANY KINDS OF PLANTS

Go outside and look around. What kinds of plants do you see?

Trees, grass, and bushes are all plants.

There are many different kinds of plants.

Plants can be big or small.

Their leaves can be wide or thin.

Most plants make their own food.

They make food from air, water, and sunlight.

Things in the soil also help them make food.

The green in their leaves helps, too!

Plants grow in most places around the world.

Plants are the right shape and size for the places where they grow.

Different kinds of leaves help plants live in these places.

DIFFERENT PLACES, DIFFERENT LEAVES

Some plants grow in hot forests.

Many of these plants have big, wide leaves.

The leaves are big to take in lots of sunlight.

Hot forests get a lot of rain.

Some plants have leaves with pointed tips.

Rain runs off the tips very fast.

Then the plants do not get too wet.

Some plants grow in hot deserts.

Deserts are very dry places without much rain.

Where are the leaves on this plant?

The sharp spines are the plant’s leaves!

Spines help desert plants save water.

Many other plants in hot deserts have thick leaves.

Thick leaves help desert plants save water, too.

Some plants grow in cold forests.

Many trees in cold forests have thin leaves.

The leaves are called needles.

Needles help these trees stay warm in winter.

The needles help in another way, too.

Snow falls off the needles fast.

Then the branches do not get heavy and break.

STRANGE LEAVES

Some plants grow in poor soil.

They cannot make enough food.

The soil does not give them everything they need.

The leaves of some plants are traps.

These plants use their traps to catch small animals.

They catch insects to eat.

They may even catch small frogs!
