This is your bleed line.
Plants are living organisms. They use light from the sun to make their own food in the form of a sugar called glucose. This process is called photosynthesis. Plants also get nutrients from the soil through their roots. They breathe in carbon dioxide and they breathe out oxygen.
Cut out the pictures on page 2 and paste them in the correct order in the life cycle.

Life Cycle A plant starts out as a seed buried in the ground. As water falls on the seed and the sun warms it, its hard shell opens and it starts to grow out its roots. As the plant grows, its stem bursts through the soil. Then, leaves start to grow out of the stem. As the plant gets bigger it will begin to grow buds, which later sprout into flowers, and sometimes those flowers turn into fruit! As bees feed on the nectar, they pollinate the plants, allowing more seeds to be made and scattered to grow again.

Telephones Now and Then
Telephones Now and Thenby Rachelle Kreisman
Telephones help people speak to one another when they are apart. For
more than a hundred years, nearly every telephone was a landline. A
landline telephone is one that needs to be connected by a wire to a network
of other telephones. Because of the wires, people could not take those
telephones with them when they left their homes or offices.
What if you had to make a call while you were away from home? You had to
find a pay phone. Pay phones are landlines found in public places. Many

pay phones are on the street. You can make a call from inside a glass or
metal space called a phone booth. Once you are inside the booth, you put
coins into a slot in the phone to make a call.
Telephones have seen a lot of progress. Today, many people carry cell
phones. Cell phones do not need to be connected with wires. They can be
used almost anywhere and can fit in an adult's hand.
Many cell phones sold today are smartphones. A smartphone is a cell phone
that has lots of computer-style features. For example, people use
smartphones to check e-mail and go on the Internet. And all that can be
done using something small enough to carry in a pocket!

What Is Trade?
What Is Trade?by Susan LaBella
Steven Depolo (CC BY 2.0)
Have you ever swapped sandwiches with a friend at lunchtime? "Trade" is the name we give to any exchange of one thing for something else. Trading can take place between people, companies, and countries.
Trade involves services, money, and goods. Maybe you mowed your neighbor's lawn, and she paid you. That was trading a service for money. Or maybe you traded your scooter for a friend's video game. That was trading goods.
People and countries may trade because they have too much of one thing and need something else. For example, in some countries, people grow a lot of rice. They produce more than they need for themselves. That allows them to sell their rice to other countries. The buyers of the rice send money to the sellers. The sellers might use that money to buy goods or services.
Trade allows people to sell, buy, or exchange goods and services to get what they need.
