Students  compare deciduous and evergreen trees. In this tree activity, students list the differences between these two species of trees.

Learners create their own food chains on Kidspiration starting from the energy of the sun and what it creates. In this food chains lesson plan, students learn about how insects eat plants and so on.

In this cell energy activity, high schoolers will use an energy map to investigate how cells create ATP to store energy and how ATP loses a phosphate to release the energy to the cell. Students will then complete 4 short answer questions.

In this fern and gymnosperm worksheet, students will read about two types of vascular tissue: xylem and phloem. Then students will read about the difference between sporophytes and gametophytes. Using this information students will...

In this flowering plants learning exercise, students compare the structure and function of a tree trunk and a leaf. This learning exercise has 1 true or false and 5 fill in the blank questions.

For this kingdoms worksheet, students compare the six different kingdoms. Students complete 2 short answer questions based on this information.

In this Arbor Day writing worksheet, students collaborate with others to write a story about trees and Arbor Day. Students have 25 minutes to write and must use the 16 words in the box.

In this plants writing worksheet, students collaborate with classmates to write a group story about plants. Students have 25 minutes to write the group story using all 10 of the words in the box.

In this PowerPoint, students participate in a variation of tic tac toe in which questions about the animal and plant kingdom are presented and students move to various locations on the game board.

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.

Learners identify the different leaf pigments and colors. In this biology activity, students perform chromatography to separate them. They explain how light affects green leaf colors and causes falling leaves in autumn.

Students think about the historical development of the scientific method. They design an experiment that replicates van Helmont's, using only specified materials. Pupils then improved upon van Helmont's procedure and also consider the...

Students discuss reasons to plant trees and the best locations for cooling. They study two homes and identify types and locations of trees and determine the placement of the central air conditioners. The class plans a landscape design...

Students discover the properties of chlorophyll in plants. In this plant biology lesson, students conduct an experiment to find where the chlorophyll in the plant is located. Students are split into small groups and study plant parts....

Students demonstrate comprehension of the energy sources of various cycles by completing mini stories. They demonstrate analysis of words by defining individual word parts and combining them to form definitions. Students demonstrate...

Students explain habitats. In this model based lesson plan students create a model to help describe a habitat that is typical of deep-water. Students will describe how organisms such as coral and sponges add to their habitat.

Students write an essay about the coral reefs. For this oceanography lesson, students investigate the reef of Bonaire and compare it to reefs that are not thriving. Students then explore the differences that contribute to the overall...

Students role-play coyotes looking for natural resources.  In this natural resources lesson, students examine the relationship between animal life and the environment.  Students play a game that demonstrates how natural...

Students conduct various experiments on glucose. In this biology lesson, students differentiate the process of diffusion and osmosis. They test different foods for the presence of glucose and starch.

Students investigate the components of chlorophyll. They use paper chromatography to separate the many pigments of chlorophyll from one another.

Learners compare and contrast deep-sea coral reefs with shallow-water coral reefs. In this underwater ecology instructional activity, students describe three types of coral and explain why scientists are concerned about the future of...

Students research trees and their parts. In this forestry lesson, students participate in various learning stations to identify trees by matching the photographs of the tree to the correct name.

Students identify plant needs. In this biology activity, students watch All About Plants and then write a paragraph describing the various details about plants.

Students perform experiments to determine the PH, acidity, and buffering qualities of a lake that make them sensitive to acid deposition.
