Sunlight, Air, and Water
Aplant needs certain things to live
and grow. A plant needs sunlight, or light
from the sun. It also needs air and water.
A plant uses these things to make its food.
Air isallaround
B us, even though ;:
we can not see it. _Plants grow toward
the sun to get the
light they need. Plants get most
of the water they
need from the soil.
Circle three words that
name things a plant needs.From the Soil
Most plants need soil to grow. Soil is
made up of small pieces of rock and
once-living things. A plant's roots take
in water from the soil. The roots take in
nutrients, too. Nutrients are things in soil
that help plants grow.
Some plants do not grow in soil. They
live and grow on other plants. Their roots
take in rain and water from the air.
