Curated OER
What Bees Eat
Students consider the concept that plants and animals are dependent on one another and role-play the interaction between bees and flowers. They identify crops that are dependent on pollination by bees.
Curated OER
Why Are Bees Important?
Students identify and analyze pollination and how bees play an important part in the life cycle of flowering plants. They also identify the process of plant pollination and how bees play an important part in the life cycle of flowering...
Curated OER
Busy Bees
Students explore the pollination cycle. In this pollination lesson, students investigate the process of pollination. Students illustrate the pollination cycle of bees on paper plates.
Curated OER
POLLINATION DEMONSTRATION
Third graders study the terms pollen and pollination. They use appropriate vocabulary in describing their investigations, explorations, and observations (e.g., stem, pistil, stamen, flower). They describe, using their observations,...
Curated OER
Plants And Pollination
Students describe sexual reproduction in plants, including the process of pollination, how insects assist in pollination, and how pollination differs from fertilization. They also explore the importance of honey bees to Arizona agriculture.
Curated OER
Flower Power
Students explore parts of the flower. In this plant biology lesson, students dissect flowers and identify how the seeds are formed. Students take a nature walk to pick flowers for future dissections.
Oklahoma Ag in The Classroom
Bee Smart Bee Happy
Here is a wonderfully designed lesson on bees and pollination designed for early elementary learners. After a class discussion on bees, pupils pretend to be a bee by picking up nectar off of "flowers" in the class. The flowers are...
Curated OER
Apple Blossoms and Pollination
Students explore the concept of pollination. In this pollination activity, students examine the parts of an apple blossom and then compare and contrast pollination and cross-pollination.
Curated OER
Pollination
In this pollination worksheet, students read and assess comprehension. In this labeling and filling in the blanks worksheet, students answer fourteen questions.
Curated OER
Pollinators and Wildflowers
Learners explore how plants depend on pollinators to reproduce. In this pollination lesson students dissect a local flower and collect and identify pollinating insects.
Desert Discoveries
What's the Buzz on Native Bees?
Young biologists describe the different types of bees that are native to the Sonoran Desert. They look at the nesting and feeding requirements of the insects, and study how they are able to pollinate many plants found in the environment....
Curated OER
Too Bee Or Not To Bee
Students recognize that bees are important in the reproduction of plants and to the survival of animals. In this bee lesson plan, students become familiar with the parts of bees and how those adaptations help them pollinate plants....
Curated OER
Pollination
Students investigate pollination. In this plant biology instructional activity, students study a diagram of the reproductive parts of the flower and dissect and identify the parts of a real flower.
Curated OER
From Flower to Fruit
Students examine how flowers have essentially four parts. They learn both the male and female reproductive parts of the flower, then explore self-pollination and pollination by insects and other animals.
Curated OER
From Flower to Fruit: Microviewer
In this From Flower to Fruit worksheet, students define several terms as it relates to flower development and the parts. Students describe the process used by bees for pollination of flowers.
Curated OER
Matching Flowers With Their Pollinators
Young scholars match flowers to pollinators and construct models of
flowers to demonstrate why different kinds of flowers need different kinds of
pollinators. They use their flower models and the "Scientific Method Format" included in...
Curated OER
What Bees Eat
Young scholars 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. Young scholars then use tissue and pipe...
Curated OER
The Sweet Connection
Students use maps to find what crops are dominant in areas where honey bees are raised and discuss possible correlations. They mark the top ten honey- producing states on a US map.
Curated OER
The Buzz About Honey
What's the buzz these days? Learn some fun and interesting facts about honeybees with an informational reading passage, including the steps for successful pollination and honey creation.
Curated OER
Looking at Flowers
Students use their bee sticks to cross-pollinate their Fast Plants and also focus in on the anatomy of flowers. They analyze how the parts of a system go together, and how these parts depend on each other. Finally, students describe...
Curated OER
Dissecting A Flower
Students investigate the basic parts of tree flowers and their role in pollination. They study the process of pollination and fertilization of flowers and trees.
Curated OER
Plant Pollination and Fertilization
Fourth graders research and apply knowledge about plant pollination and fertilization in this instructional activity. They color on a flower diagram the anther, the pistil, the pollen, the pollen tube, the ovary, and the egg to show the...
Curated OER
Plants and Animals: Partners in Pollination
Students identify the plant parts and bee structures that are involved in pollination. They simulate pollination in a group activity and process the information.
Curated OER
Growth and Change as it Occurs in Plants and Flowers
Students work together to observe plants and flowers through their life cycle. In groups, they make predictions and record changes in a journal. Using this information, they create their own original artwork and discuss the plants life...
