What changes happen in nature during spring?In spring, the weather starts to get warmer and plants begin to grow again. Trees grow new leaves and flowers start to bloom. Many animals have babies in spring, like lambs and chicks. You might see more insects, birds building nests, and longer days with more sunlight.

What are the main parts of the human body?The human body has many important parts. Some of the basic parts we can see are the head, arms, legs, hands, feet, eyes, ears, mouth, and nose. We can draw and label these parts to show where they are on the body. Each part has a special job to help us move, see, hear, or speak.

Which body parts do we use for our five senses?We use different parts of the body for each of our five senses. We use our eyes to see, our ears to hear, our nose to smell, our tongue to taste, and our skin (especially our hands) to touch and feel. Each sense helps us understand the world around us. These body parts work together to keep us safe and aware.

What is spring weather like and how do the days change?Spring weather can be a mix of sunshine, rain, and wind. Sometimes it's warm, but it can still be chilly or wet. The days begin to get longer, with more daylight than in winter. This means the sun rises earlier and sets later as spring goes on.

Body – All the parts that make up a person or animal.

Senses – Sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch – how we understand the world.

Label – A word that shows the name of a body part in a picture or diagram.

 

 

Spring – The season when plants begin to grow, and baby animals are born.

Grow – What plants and trees start to do in spring.

Rain – Common weather in spring that helps plants grow.

Blossom – Flowers that bloom on trees during spring.

Longer days – In spring, the daylight lasts longer as days get brighter.
