Students use stick puppets to explain the various methods plants use to disperse their seeds.
In this lesson, students will become familiar with the parts of the plant and methods of seed dispersal. In addition, students will serve as a vector to pick up seeds and analyze the variety of items accumulated in the process.
In this activity, students will learn the parts of algae, compare them to land plants, and rotate through exploration stations to investigate seaweed close up with their different senses.
In this lesson, students review the three main parts of a tree. They complete a worksheet to learn the parts of a tree that are used in identification. Students play a game and act out how a tree meets its basic needs. They then label and put in order the life stages of a tree. As a conclusion, students draw their own tree, label it, and write a paragraph about how that tree is identified.
Students will identify the different parts of trees and the purposes they serve and how these features help them live in different environments. Students will also read the book "A Tree is Nice" by Janice May Udry.
