Calling All Year 3 Teachers – It’s Time for an Autumnal Adventure!

As the seasons shift and nature puts on its golden display, there’s no better time to take learning outdoors. Teaching plants in Year 3 requires thoughtful planning to ensure children experience the full cycle of growth and change. One key objective is to:

Explore the role flowers play in the life cycle of flowering plants – including pollination, seed formation, and seed dispersal.

Right now, trees and plants are bursting with fruits and seeds, ready to begin their journey of dispersal. With the Education Guru lesson plan in hand, your class can step outside to:

• Observe and classify a variety of seed dispersal methods

• Create their own “mystery seed” for classmates to identify

• Engage directly with nature to witness seasonal changes firsthand

Forget the PowerPoints—this is hands-on science at its best. Immersing children in the natural world not only deepens understanding but sparks curiosity and wonder that lasts far beyond the classroom.

Download your lesson plan below and let’s make this autumn unforgettable.
