About this resource
Description
The What Do Plants Make Worksheet helps students discover how many everyday things come from plants. Plants give us much more than shade and flowers. The bread we eat, the paper we write on, and the jam we spread on toast all start as parts of a plant, while other things we use every day come from animals or from the earth.
This worksheet is written for 3rd grade science students. In Part A, students sort eight words from a word box into two columns: things made from plants and things not made from plants. In Part B, they read four clues and name the plant each one describes. Teachers can use this what do plants make worksheet during a plant unit, in a science center, as homework, or as a quick review.
What’s Included
- A word-box sort with two labeled columns: Made From Plants and Not From Plants
- Four clue sentences about cotton, wheat, maple, and corn
- A colorful illustration of a loaf of bread and two eggs, one example for each column
- A complete answer key
Why It Helps Kids
First, sorting real objects helps students see that plants are a resource people depend on every day. Second, the clues ask students to read carefully and use details, like cobs, sap, and fluffy fiber, to name the right plant. Third, the sheet builds classification skills, a big part of third grade science, as students decide where each product comes from and explain their thinking.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Go on a plant product hunt around the classroom or kitchen and make a class chart of everything that comes from a plant. Bring in a cotton ball, a few oats, and a maple leaf so students can see and touch the plants from the clues. Students can also pick one plant and draw a simple flow chart showing how it becomes a product. This 3rd grade plants worksheet is printable and ready to use with no prep.
