These Plants vocabulary flashcards are designed to support children’s understanding of key scientific language in Year 2 Science.

The set includes 20 printable flashcards, each showing a real photograph alongside a short, clear definition. The vocabulary focuses on how plants grow, the main parts of a plant, and what plants need to stay healthy, helping children to talk confidently about their learning using the correct scientific terms.

The cards work well when introducing new vocabulary, revisiting learning, or supporting discussion during science lessons. They are also useful as a reference during written work, for word walls or displays, and for small group or intervention work.

The vocabulary reflects Year 2 science expectations and aligns with the UK National Curriculum, while remaining accessible for younger learners who benefit from visual support and simple explanations.
