This lesson meets its goal of addressing plant parts. There is some integration of literacy strategies by having students listen to a book read aloud and take notes in their booklets.
Collaboration between SLMC and teacher could be added by having the librarian pull books about plants to pique students' interest. Books that show different types of flowers and roots would be especially useful. Tying this into a nutrition lesson by showing how different types of flowers turn into different types of fruits would also be interesting to students at this age. These additional resources would allow more students to tap into prior knowledge and to build opportunities for real-world applications.
Some creativity is demonstrated as students illustrate the covers of their books, but otherwise, no student choice or reflection opportunities are provided. There is no product design or problem solving involved.
