Plant Needs Worksheet

The activity presents plant needs through short clues rather than a direct label-and-picture match. Learners infer which need is being described and record a response, then address an additional statement about soil. The clue format asks them to connect each resource with its role in plant growth rather than merely reciting a memorized list. Teachers can use the responses to identify confusion between what plants require and the medium or conditions that support access to those needs.
