How plants grow.mp41. Put your seeds on a tissue or cotton wool that has been wet a little. Leave them to germinate. Some will but some will not.
2. Watch closely what comes out of the cracked shell first, the shoot or the root.
3. If any seeds germinate carefully put in a cup with cotton wool and water a little bit each day. Leave on a windowsill. If you have a garden carefully plant them in the ground and water everyday.

Fractions
What is a fraction?
A fraction simply tells us how many parts of a whole we have. You can recognize a fraction by the slash that is written between the two numbers. We have a top number, the numerator, and a bottom number, the denominator. For example, 1/2 is a fraction. ... So 1/2 of a pie is half a pie!
Watch the videos to help explain fractions:
