**5E Lesson Plan for Class 4 EVS**

**Topic: Plants and Their Roots**

**1. Engage (5-10 minutes)**

- Begin with a short story: Read or narrate the story of *Muanpuia in the
Garden*.

- Ask questions to spark curiosity:

- *"Why was it hard for Muanpuia to pull out the grass?"*

- *"What happened to the pea plant when the stick fell?"*

- *"Why didn’t the neem tree fall during the storm?"*

- Let students share their thoughts and experiences about plants and
roots.

**2. Explore (15-20 minutes)**

- Activity: *"Observing Roots"*

- Provide students with small plants (like grass or herbs) and ask them to
gently remove the plant from the soil.

- Let them observe the roots and compare the size of the roots to the
plant above the ground.

- Ask: *"Are the roots longer or shorter than the plant? How do they help
the plant?"*

- Discuss: *"What would happen if a plant had no roots?"*

**3. Explain (10-15 minutes)**

- Explain the role of roots using simple language:

- Roots hold the plant firmly in the soil.

- Roots absorb water and nutrients from the soil.

- Some roots store food (e.g., radish, carrot).

- Show pictures or diagrams of different types of roots (e.g., taproot,


fibrous roots, aerial roots).
- Relate to the story: *"Why did the neem tree not fall in the storm? Why
did the pea plant break?"*

**4. Elaborate (10-15 minutes)**

- Discuss: *"How do plants get water if we don’t water them?"*

- Activity: *"Draw and Label"*

- Ask students to draw a plant and label its parts (roots, stem, leaves).

- Write one function of the roots next to the drawing.

- Relate to real-life examples: *"Have you seen plants growing on walls or


rocks? How do they survive?"*

**5. Evaluate (5-10 minutes)**

- Ask students to answer simple questions:

- *"What do roots do for a plant?"*

- *"Why didn’t the neem tree fall in the storm?"*

- *"What happens if a plant has no roots?"*

- Give a small worksheet with matching or fill-in-the-blanks:

- Example: *"Match the plant part to its function: Roots - Absorb water,
Leaves - Make food, Stem - Supports the plant."*

**Materials Needed**:

- Small plants with roots (grass, herbs, etc.).

- Pictures or diagrams of roots.

- Notebooks and pencils for drawing.

- Worksheet for evaluation.

**Objective**: Students will understand the importance of roots in plants


and how they help plants survive and grow. This lesson plan is simple,
interactive, and connects the story of Muanpuia to real-life observations,
making it engaging for Class 4 students!
