Parts of a Plant Flash Cards

Directions: Select the “Print on Both Sides” option when printing out the flash cards. This will ensure the parts of

the plant are printed on the backs of the fruit and vegetable pictures. Once printed, cut out the flash cards so you

can use them to test your student’s knowledge. Before using the flashcards, go over the different parts of the plant

(Roots, Stem, Leaves, Flower, Fruit, Seeds) so your student knows what parts they will be guessing.

Helpful Hint: The part of the plant that has seeds in it is called the fruit. If your student is having difficulty

guessing if something is a fruit or not, ask them “Does it have seeds in it?” If they guess vegetable, remind them

that they are only guessing the parts of the plant (Roots, Stem, Leaves, Flower, Fruit, Seeds) and not if it is a fruit

or a vegetable.
