Students determine what part of a plant they are eating when they eat different fruits and vegetables, and make collages of fruit and vegetable pictures that are flowers, fruits, leaves, roots, seeds, seed pods, stems and tubers.

Students watch a video on the parts of plants and their uses. They then observe a live plant and on a worksheet label the four main parts of the flower (flower, leaves, rooms, and stem).

Here is a one-hour activity that helps learners remember the parts of plants. Not only will the class learn about plant parts, they'll also discuss seed dispersal and plant growth. A celery experiment is used to show how plants obtain...

Engineering challenges are not just man-made ... nature has its own set of them. A hands-on STEM activity has groups designing a seed dispersal system. Each group can only use one sheet of paper — a tough task!

Young scholars identify and explain the parts of a flower and their role in the life cycle of flowering plants, including pollination, seed dispersal, and germination. Students recap the following information: that plants need light,...

Make a fun and healthy snack to celebrate Earth Day! Included are the directions for making a flower out of strawberries, kiwi, mint leaves, and raspberry licorice. Just provide your class with the materials and watch them make edible...

Students conduct various experiments to investigate plant transpiration. In this biology lesson, students explain how this process helps maintain the hydrologic cycle. They measure the rate of water loss in plants using a potometer.

Students perform acts of kindness.  In this character lesson, students cut out seed shapes and write down their acts of kindness on them.  Students place the seeds on a bulletin board where they "plant" them below the grass line.

Students identify and define types of trees. In this tree identification lesson, students complete a KWL chart on trees and read the book ABCedar: An Alphabet of Trees. Students complete a tree word scramble.

Students learn the various parts of a farm and what is grown on a farm. They also match fruits and vegetables to locations where they are grown.

Elementary life science explorers compare and contrast aquatic and terrestrial plants (elodea and soybeans) in a Venn diagram. Some background information is provided to support direct instruction, and general instructions are provided...

In this 4-H horticulture and gardening worksheet, students study how some of the food they eat is the stems, roots, leaves, seeds, and flowers of plants by completing a fill-in-the-blank activity and a word search page. They examine the...

Learners explore mathematics, geography and agriculture by studying world rice production. In this production of rice lesson, students read One Grain of Rice and use a worksheet grid to calculate how much rice was received. Learners...

First graders read the story Tops and Bottoms and identify vegetables that are eaten from the stem, root, and leaf of a plant. In this vegetables lesson plan, 1st graders learn vocabulary about different vegetable parts and write journal...

Students observe the pistil growing into a tiny string bean-like seed pod. They then observe the development of the fertilized pods between Day 17 and Day 35 and record their observations by drawing and labeling, writing, and graphing. ...

In this plants worksheet, students name and locate the major organs of flowering plants. Then students color, cut and paste a flower model by following the directions given.

Learners successfully start a new plant by any means of vegetative propagation. They select a propagation method which is appropriate for the plant and keep a laboratory journal of the treatment and progress of the new plant.

Are you looking for a reading resource about the efficiency of power systems? Here is one that introduces the output/input ratio, measurement of energy by joules or calories, and efficiency ratings. For STEM classes that are learning...

The vascular tissue found in plants is the subject of a two-part comprehension worksheet that asks kids to read the provided article and then to respond to a series of comprehension questions.

Students identify what plants need to grow. For this plant biology lesson, students analyze the differences between an artificial plant and a live plant. Students plant seeds and discuss what plants need to grow. Students observe the...

Second graders identify types of roots and their purposes and observe and document root growth. students observe their roots once a week and measure them to see if there has been any change. Each student keeps a written log of the...

In this flowering plant worksheet, learners will review vocabulary words associated with the life cycle of flowering plants. This worksheet has 7 matching and 3 short answer questions.

Ninth graders study the effects of soil and rocks on filtering groundwater.  In this groundwater lesson students complete a lab activity that includes sources of contamination. 

First graders observe plants and write and illustrate what they have learned in their discovery journal.
