All plants have a life cycle. A cycle is a series of changes that
occur in the life of a plant. During its life cycle, a plant can grow,
change and make more plants like itself. The plant dies at the end of
its life cycle.
Plants start their life cycle in different ways. Some plants, like a
tree, starts as a seed. The kind of seed you plant is the kind of plant
that will grow. Other plants begin as a bulb or cutting.

it means you should not cross. Green man means it is safe to cross
the intersection.
Remember to look both ways while crossing a street. Never
cross if vehicles are coming. Use the zebra crossing when you see
the vehicles are stopped and walking man signal is green. Wear a
helmet when riding two-wheeler. It protects us from injury.

Listen as your parent/ guardian read the text.
Summarize the text and use the information in the FIVE FINGER
chart as your guide. Remember to restate the information or
retell it in your own words.

Changing of Climate

When we use a car, the engine produces a gas called

Carbon dioxide (CO2). Gas comes out of pipe and floats
up the air. Many people use cars and lots of CO2 is going
up into the air. When we leave the TV or the lights on, that
uses electricity. Electricity comes from the power station
and makes CO2.

There is much carbon dioxide in the air that covers like

a big blanket. This blanket of carbon dioxide can make the
air too hot. This is called climate change.

Sometimes the heat causes droughts when there’s no

enough rain. All the plants die. Sometimes the hot air
makes great big storms called typhoon. Big waves smash
up to the coral reefs. Heat can warm up the sea causing
the corals to die and fish to go away.
