Where have you seen a poinsettia plant before?
They are a used as a Christmas tradition in England, but Poinsettia plants are native to Central America, especially an area of southern Mexico known as 'Taxco del Alarcon' where they flower during the winter. The ancient Aztecs called them 'cuetlaxochitl'.
Wednesday – Maths
We’re going to create a symmetrical
poinsettia that can help decorate our
Mexican party.
Using the template found on the website,
finish the other half of the poinsettia and
colour it in.
