Hummingbirds and Flowers: A Study of Co-Adaptive Relationships
Hummingbirds and flowers need each other to survive! Pupils explore the co-adaptation of hummingbirds and the flowering plants. They explain how a flowering plant has adapted to be pollinated by a hummingbird and how the hummingbird has...
Curated OER
Pollination Station
Learners investigate why and how bees pollinate flowers and other plants. They define pollination, and read and sing along with the song "Yo, i'm a Flower." Students examine a diagram of a flower, simulate bees pollinating flowers, and...
Curated OER
Pollination
Learners 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.
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
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
Pollination Partners
In this science activity, students look for the causes and effects of pollination through doing some arts and crafts projects that includes a collage.
Curated OER
Looking at Flowers
Learners 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
Apple Blossoms and Pollination
Students explore the concept of pollination. In this pollination lesson plan, students examine the parts of an apple blossom and then compare and contrast pollination and cross-pollination.
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...
Curated OER
Bats, Bees, Birds, and Blossoms
Youngsters use a paper bee to pollinate two paper flowers. They use hole-punch dots as pollen. Older learners dissect flowers and name the structures involved in pollination. The handouts mentioned in the lesson plan are not included, so...
Curated OER
Life Cycles
Students explore the parts of a flower and pollination of flowers. In this plants instructional activity, students use an interactive whiteboard to label the parts of a plant and the functions of each part. Students complete a worksheet...
Curated OER
What Are Plant Life Cycles?
In this plant life cycles worksheet, students will write in the main idea of the life cycle of a flowering plant. Then students will write in 3 supporting details.
Curated OER
Fun with Flowers
Students make observations of flowers. In this life science lesson, students look at flowers, then draw and color their favorite flowers. Lesson includes extension activities.
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
Bees
Young scholars design an experiment. In this bees instructional activity, students research pollination and work collaboratively to discover how bees aid in pollination. Young scholars use tomato plants and create experimental designs....
Curated OER
Pollinator Habitats
Students read and discuss background information included with this lesson. They brainstorm the best sources for developing a list of native or migratory pollinators. Students work in groups to design habitats based on information...
Curated OER
Buzzy, Buzzy Bee
Students simulate honeybees pollinating flowers. In this pollination lesson, students role-play the process of pollination over the course of several seasons. Students graph results and share their graphs with the class.
Rain Bird Corporation
Rain Forest Teaching Curriculum
Take young naturalists on an exploration of the world's tropical rainforests with this extensive collection of lessons and activities. Whether its creating leaf and flower prints or investigating the absorption spectrum of chlorophyl,...
Curated OER
Fun with Plants Flower Power
Students understand the parts of the flower. In this flower lesson, students perform experiments to see where seeds come from. Students complete a data sheet about the experiment. Students understand the terms pistil and stamen.
Curated OER
Flowering Plants
Students conduct online research to investigate gardening and landscaping tips. They determine how they can help beautify their homes and neighborhoods.
Museum of Science
Egg Carton Nursery
Observe nature in action. Young biologists make plant nurseries from cardboard egg cartons. Once the seeds sprout, they move the flowering plants outside and make observations of bees that pollinate the flowers.
Curated OER
Native Beauty
Students plant wild flowers and maintain their garden. In this wild flowers lesson plan, students pick and prepare a gardening site, plant wild flowers, and maintain it everyday.
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.
