Abstract
It is an admitted fact that the nature is one of the first and most reliable teachers of the human kind. The current research is focused on the development of basic scientific and cognitive skills in the school children. The students are encouraged to see the plant growth by visiting a nearby state or nationally administrated park and study the plantation and its nutrition for themselves. The second phase involves the plantation of the plants at the hands of the students and making them responsible for their growth and nutrition. The planned activity is achieved to facilitate the basic understanding and development of the plants, their creation, and nutrition factors in the children.
Lesson Plan and Outdoor Activity
The ultimate objective and associated outdoor activity are all about educating the students about one of the first creatures of the nature they came into interact “plants”. The learning activity consists of two parts one is the classroom activity transferring basic scientific knowledge regarding plants and their growth to the students (Yıldırım & Akamca 2017). The second phase includes a visit to the nearby national state-run park and allows the students to practically observe the plants and the teach them about the lessons taught to them in the classroom activity and then asking them to plant a tree or flower plan for themselves. The major motivation behind the selection of the “plants” and associated outdoor activity is the fact that the “plants” are one of the first outdoor creatures of natures which fascinate the children from their early childhood (Yıldırım & Akamca 2017).
The lesson plan starts with the general introduction of the plants, flowers, their growth, and elements required for their nutrition. The basic objective to achieve in this activity to make students aware of one of the beautiful creatures of nature and basic scientific principle associated with them. The teachers can easily teach the students about the role of core components involved in the plant growth which are seeds, stems, the role of appropriate water and air supply, and the role of sunlight in the nutrition of the plants the lesson plan can be represented by the following figure:

The teachers must be able to emphasize the basic role of the components involved in the plant growth and nutrition to every student involved in the classroom activity. After using several visual aids and pictures the students can effectively about the fascinating plants surrounding them. The need and importance of the plants and their role in the delicate ecosystem of the world can also be explained to the students. For instance, the students can be taught that the food chain is heavily dependent on the plants and their consumption. Even the c...
