In Science this week we have been learning about pollination and fertilisation in plants.
We learnt about the words 'stamen' and 'stigma' and their role in the pollination process.
"The bee flies to the stamen and collects pollen" - Livi
We then acted out the pollination process in groups where we pretended to be a bee, stamen, stigma, sepals and petals. We then used velcro ping pong balls as pollen and showed how it transfers from the stamen to the stigma.
The children showed great reciprocity when working together to create each part of the process.
