🎯 What You'll Learn

You will learn English words about plants, trees, and the weather.

🌟 Let's Start

Emeka looks outside. The sun is shining brightly. There are tall trees near the school, and flowers are growing in the garden. In Nigeria, we have a rainy season and a dry season. Let us learn the words for nature and weather!

📚 New Concept

Plant words:

  • Tree — a tall plant with a trunk, branches, and leaves
  • Flower — the colourful part of a plant
  • Leaf — the green flat part of a plant (many leaves = leaves)
  • Grass — short green plants that cover the ground

Weather words:

  • Sun — the bright ball in the sky that gives light and heat
  • Rain — water that falls from the clouds
  • Cloud — the white or grey shapes in the sky
  • Wind — moving air that you can feel

Using nature words in sentences:

  • "The tree has many green leaves."
  • "The rain is falling from the clouds."
  • "The sun is hot today!"
