By the end of this unit, students will be able to:
- identify how specific plant adaptations, such as longer roots and larger stems, help plants survive in desert environments.
- understand how certain features like thick stems for water storage and deep root systems for water absorption are advantageous in dry habitats.
Curriculum Alignment: Year 6 Science: Evolution and inheritance
- identify how animals and plants are adapted to suit their environment in different ways and that adaptation may lead to evolution
