The Pollinator
What do bees and children have in common? They both love their sweets. Decorate a flower pot or bucket to look like a brightly colored flower and fill it with wrapped candy and cheese puffs. Have learners reach into grab the candy,...

Pollination Power
Second graders study and examine the structure of a flower. In this pollination instructional activity, 2nd graders observe pollinators in the garden and dissect a flower. Students then plant strawberry plants in the garden and...

Pollinator's Journey: Grades K-4
What's it like to migrate as a pollinator? Teachers provide direct instruction about the roles of pollinators such as butterflies on plants along with the threats they encounter. The class then acts out a story of the migration of bats...

Creating a Pollinator Garden
Students build a pollination garden. In this pollination instructional activity, students read directions and build a pollinator garden that will produce flowering plants for pollinator organisms to use in pollination of other plants.

Plant Pollination
Students investigate methods of pollination for various flowers. In this plant biology lesson, students learn the parts of a flower and form a hypothesis about the method of pollination for the flower. They determine the validity of...
Curated OER
Pollination Power
Students go out into the garden and observe pollinating animals through hand lenses. In this pollination lesson plan, students also discuss how animals carry seeds to create new plants elsewhere.

Plant Pollination and Fertilization
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...

Pollinator's Journey: Grades 9-12
Gain a deeper understanding of migratory pollinators. After studying about pollinators and their effects on flowering plants, learners hear a story about the migration of Monarch butterflies and bats in the Sonoma Desert. Small groups...
National Wildlife Federation
Pollinator's Journey: Grades 5-8
Re-enact the flight of the pollinator. Pupils learn about the roles of butterflies, bats, and other pollinators in plant reproduction. The class acts out the migratory flight of Monarch butterflies and bats from the Sonoran Desert to...

Pollination of Flowers by Moths
Turn your classroom into a pollination station as your kids transform into moths or predators trying to survive and aiding in plant reproduction along the way. Using silent party blowers as proboscises, the moths will have two minutes to...

Bees and Flowers – Partners in Pollination
Why are bees so important? After several activities where kids investigate the form and function of flowers, they learn about the different types of bees and label them. They then examine pollen under a microscope and decide which bees...
Curated OER
Pollination Parties
Students discuss the pollination of bees and butterflies. In this pollination lesson,students complete a worksheet answering questions about an imaginary bee pollination company. Students understand the relationship...

Parts of the Flower and Pollination
Students review the parts of the plant and recognize the parts that are important for pollination. For this pollination lesson, students illustrate and label the parts of a flower. Students compare different types of flowers.

Plants And Pollination
High schoolers 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...

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,...

The Great Pollinators
Young scholars discover the reproductive parts of a plant. In this biology lesson, students identify and categorize several different plants they dissect in class. Young scholars record their information using a data chart.

Conservation in Small Spaces: Plant-Insect Interactions
Learners explore ways that plants and insects impact each other, identify how different types of mouthparts allow insects to use plants in different ways, and design an insect and a plant to demonstrate mutualism.

Fantastic Flower
Here is a clever lesson on pollination of flowers for you. In it, learners study the anatomy of a flower, and play a game in which they simulate the process of pollination. This fine plan brings in elements of art, physical education,...

Parts of a Flower! Flower Dissection
Sometimes the best way to learn about plants is to see the different parts of a plant yourself. Groups of learners dissect flowers to answer questions about what they observe and what they wonder about their flower.
Curated OER
Pollinators and Wildflowers
Young scholars explore how plants depend on pollinators to reproduce. In this pollination lesson students dissect a local flower and collect and identify pollinating insects.
Curated OER
Fish and Flowers
Students read and discuss a research article that explains the unlikely link between increased fish populations and increased plant pollination. They answer reading guide questions to discover this ecological relationship.

Pollination-Plants and Flowers Lesson Plan
Young scholars study the reproductive parts and pollination for a flower. In this pollination lesson plan, students dissect flowers to perform an investigation. Young scholars also use tube socks to show how pollination works. A...

Pollen & Pollination
Young scholars identify the different ways things are pollinated and how to manage pollen. In this pollination instructional activity students complete an experiment on how moths pollinate flowers.
Curated OER
Pollination
Young scholars investigate pollination. In this plant biology lesson, students study a diagram of the reproductive parts of the flower and dissect and identify the parts of a real flower.
