Know it! - Plants - Year 2

In a Year 2 educational module on plants, provided by Focus Education (UK) Ltd, children are encouraged to explore what plants and trees require to flourish. The module, titled "Know it! - Plants," prompts students to consider the essential elements that contribute to the healthy growth of flora. This key topic is not only addressed during the dedicated unit but is also revisited through various retrieval tasks. These tasks are designed to reinforce the learning and ensure that children can recall and apply the information they have learned even after the unit has concluded.

The inclusion of retrieval tasks is a crucial educational strategy aimed at solidifying the students' understanding. By providing opportunities for children to return to the subject matter post-unit, educators ensure that the knowledge is deeply embedded. This approach aids in the retention of important information regarding the needs of plants and trees for healthy development, which is a fundamental aspect of the natural science curriculum for Year 2 students.
