Plant Parts Word Search, free printable PDF preview

A flower is a machine with one job. The PETAL is advertising, the POLLEN on the STAMEN is what the visitor carries away, and the PISTIL in the middle is where the SEEDS begin. Below it, the STEM is plumbing and the ROOTS are the pump. This word find takes the labels off a third grade diagram, SEPAL and TENDRIL included, and hides them in a grid.

Frequently asked questions

What is a SEPAL?

The small green leaves under the petals. They wrap the bud before it opens and hold the flower together after, and most students have never noticed them.

Which grade uses this plant parts word search?

Second through fourth grade, when the parts of a plant and the parts of a flower are both taught. A BLOSSOM diagram and this grid make a two part station.
