Eighth graders examine the reproductive organs of plants. In this plant reproduction instructional activity, 8th graders identify the reproductive organs of different plants using a digital camera. Students create a plant portfolio of...

Students collect and observe pollen. In this plant reproduction biology lesson, students use pollen boards to collect pollen from flowers, then match it with the correct paper flowers. Students move artificial bees from flower to flower...

Students examine the importance of plants to individuals and society through a multi-discipline set of activities. They observe and draw different leaf structures and then create a book about trees and photosynthesis. They explore ways...

Third graders discuss pollination and how bees pollinate flowers. In this pollination lesson plan, 3rd graders draw the pollination process on a piece of paper.

Fascinate young life scientists by showing them how their brain learns. By using prism goggles while attempting to toss bean bags at a target, lab partners change their outlook on the world around them, producing amusing results....

Students are introduced to the unit on the importance of diversity of life and the role that interdependence plays in our worlds. this is part of a multi-lesson unit on the diversity of life.

Students compare common food items with the parts of a plant. They grow their own plants to assess the difficulties in assisting a plant's growth and reproduction.

Young scholars fill out worksheets about insects and how they are helpful to our world. In this insects lesson plan, students learn about flower parts and insects that pollinate them.

Students recognize that bees are important in the reproduction of plants and to the survival of animals.  In this bee lesson, students become familiar with the parts of bees and how those adaptations help them pollinate plants....

Young scholars explore botany by examining diagrams. In this plant reproduction lesson plan, students define a list of plant vocabulary terms and identify plant anatomy from a diagram. Young scholars complete several plant activity...

Students explain how cells reproduce. In this biology lesson, students explain the different stages of the cell cycle. They calculate the number of new cells produced.

Students use video learning to explore how flowers make seeds and dissect their own flower, and make a flower with its reproductive parts out of construction paper.

Third graders design a plate to represent the three parts of a tree. In this tree parts lesson plan, 3rd graders learn about the functions of each part and design the plate to resemble the rings of the tree.

Learners study physical characteristics of separate phyla and place them into similar groups. This lesson is part of a multi-segmented unit on the diversity of life. students develop a classification system by grouping animals into...

Life science learners investigate live cells. They examine wet mount slides of cyanobacteria and Elodea plants. They peer into the dynamic microscopic world of protists. Afterward, they construct a model of a cell, including rudimentary...

Learners study plant and animal interdependence by studying bees and pollination. In this interdependence lesson, students discuss flower parts and dissect it to show its reproductive parts. Learners then use tissue and pipe cleaners to...

Students explore agriculture by researching different seeds. For this seed identification lesson, students collaborate in small groups to analyze a package of different seeds. Students utilize a magnifying glass to examine each seed...

Students explore biology by completing science worksheets in class. In this animal anatomy lesson plan, students read the book The Adventures of Marco and Polo and identify the animals mentioned in it. Students examine a real life animal...

Learners investigate plants and insects.  In this science classification lesson plan, high schoolers create separate categories for insects and plants by characteristics.  Learners discover scientific names of insects.

Students go out into the garden and observe pollinating animals through hand lenses. For this pollination lesson plan, students also discuss how animals carry seeds to create new plants elsewhere.

Young scholars create a worm bin full of fruit and vegetable scraps wit paper and observe what happens over time. In this decomposers lesson plan, students observe that the fruit and vegetable scraps become new soil.

Scholars create a drawing of their own backyards. They will use a visualization technique to sketch their own backyard onto construction paper using oil pastels. Guiding questions are given along with materials for the project....

Fourth graders research and apply knowledge about plant pollination and fertilization in this lesson. They color on a flower diagram the anther, the pistil, the pollen, the pollen tube, the ovary, and the egg to show the process of...

Learners sort organisms and objects into groups according to their parts and describe how the groups are formed.They identify body parts of animals from puzzle pieces, assemble the puzzle, and name the animal.
