Important update from TheSchoolRun

For the past 13 years, TheSchoolRun has been run by a small team of mums working from home, dedicated to providing quality educational resources to primary school parents. Unfortunately, rising supplier costs and falling revenue have made it impossible for us to continue operating, and we’ve had to make the difficult decision to close. The good news: We’ve arranged for another educational provider to take over many of our resources. These will be hosted on a new portal, where the content will be updated and expanded to support your child’s learning.

What this means for subscribers:

  • Your subscription is still active, and for now, you can keep using the website as normal — just log in with your usual details to access all our articles and resources*.
  • In a few months, all resources will move to the new portal. You’ll continue to have access there until your subscription ends. We’ll send you full details nearer the time.
  • As a thank you for your support, we’ll also be sending you 16 primary school eBooks (worth £108.84) to download and keep.

A few changes to be aware of:

  • The Learning Journey weekly email has ended, but your child’s plan will still be updated on your dashboard each Monday. Just log in to see the recommended worksheets.
  • The 11+ weekly emails have now ended. We sent you all the remaining emails in the series at the end of March — please check your inbox (and spam folder) if you haven’t seen them. You can also follow the full programme here: 11+ Learning Journey.

If you have any questions, please contact us at [email protected]. Thank you for being part of our journey it’s been a privilege to support your family’s learning.

*If you need to reset your password, it will still work as usual. Please check your spam folder if the reset email doesn’t appear in your inbox.

What do children learn about plants in Year 1?

In Year 1, children in England learn about plants as part of the Science curriculum. 

The focus is on helping children develop a basic understanding of the natural world, including the characteristics and growth of plants. 

Here’s an overview of what they typically learn:

  • Identifying and naming common plants

Children learn to identify and name a variety of common plants.

  • Basic plant structure

Children are introduced to the basic parts of plants and trees.

  • Plant growth and needs

Children learn about what plants need to grow and stay healthy. 

  • Observing seasonal changes

Children observe how plants change through the seasons. 

How will this Year 1 science worksheet help your child learn about plants?

This teacher-made resource was developed to help your child practise what they have learned at school by testing their knowledge about the parts of plants. They will need to read the various descriptions and figure out which part of the plant they belong to.
