Five is a lot for one answer. See Matthew 13:
The parable of the sower: A farmer scattered seed along the path. Some fell on rocky places, other feel among the thorns, some the birds ate, but some on good soil where it multiplied 100, 60 or 30 times.
The parable of the mustard seed; the smallest seed grows into the largest tree.
The parable of the weeds. His enemy sowed weeds among his crop. His servants asked should they cut it all down. He said no let it grow and it will all be separated at the harvest.
The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed into a large amount of flour until it worked all through the dough.
The kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it.
I hope I didn't just do your homework for you; read Matthew 13.
