What would our lives be like without plants? In this activity, students are thinking about everyday items made from plants and what life would be like without them. Which items that we use everyday are made from plants? Plants are in so many items we use everyday. The purpose of this activity is to think about items which are made from plants. Check ingredient lists or clothing tags to learn more, or look up items on line with the students and explore together. Figure out which part of a plant is used to make that item.
