*Text* Most Plants grow from a seed. Plants need
sunlight, soil, water, and air to grow. Plants cannot move on their own, they
make their own food using water and sun light.
*Text* It is important to know the different parts of the plants because each part of a plant has an important job,
from the roots that absorb water and nutrients, to the leaves that make food using photosynthesis, to the
flowers and fruit that spread the plant's seeds. Plants also provide food and oxygen for the entire biosphere,
literally supporting the existence of life on Earth. They also provide shelter, fiber, fuel, and medicinal
compounds that profoundly affect mankind.
*Text* This type of instructional material is visual since we are going to cater children with hearing
impairments. Most teachers understand the power of visual aids in helping students grasp content. Through
visual support is a one way that educators can help students understand what is being communicated to them.
Teachers value the support that visuals lend to classroom instruction because they encourage students to
make associations between pieces of information, soak up chunks of course content quickly, and function as a
memory aid.
