What Role Do Leaves Play in a Plant's Life?

  • Leaves are like the plant's kitchen where it makes its food.
  • They take in sunlight, which helps the plant in making food.
  • Leaves also help the plant breathe by taking in air and releasing oxygen.

Example 1: A leaf on a tomato plant collects sunlight and turns it into food for the plant to grow big and strong.

Example 2: The leaves of a maple tree change color in the fall and help make food during the summer using sunlight.

Example 3: A sunflower has large leaves that soak up sunlight, which helps the sunflower grow tall and bright.

Fun Fact: Leaves come in many shapes and sizes, but they all help the plant make food and breathe!
