Plant Parts
Students use "Kid Pix" to explore plants. In this science and technology lesson plan, students become familiar with plant parts and label them on a plant. Students tell the functions of each of the plant parts.
Curated OER
Plant Reproduction
High schoolers identify the different parts and function of a flower's reproductive system. For this biology lesson, students explain how pollination works. They watch a video and practice labeling parts of both flower and leaf.
Perkins School for the Blind
Counting in Tactile Journals
This is one of those great ideas I totally love. Youngsters with visual impairments practice counting and left-to -right sequencing by counting out a set number of edible objects from the left and putting them in a bag on the right. They...

Tactile Journals
I absolutely love this idea. Children with visual impairments create tactile journals which describe an event from the previous week in an artistic way. They verbally describe one event from the previous week and then use a wide array of...
Forest Foundation
Forest Health
Young foresters examine the strategies, like prescribed burns and thinning, that are employed to ensure healthy forests.
Curated OER
Flower Power
Students use video learning to explore how flowers make seeds and dissect their own flower, and make a flower with its reproductive parts out of construction paper.

Four Parts of a Green Plant and the Functions of Each Part
Students look into plants. In this science lesson plan, students discover the four parts of a green plant and the functions of each part.
Curated OER
Life cycles
Students identify and explain the parts of a flower and their role in the life cycle of flowering plants, including pollination, seed dispersal and germination using the Internet. Students will also study and discuss the key points and...
Curated OER
Plants and Roots
Students discuss the parts of the plant and
perform an experiment in which they observe a plant's water
transportation system. They become familiar with
several local plants used for utilitarian purposes.
Curated OER
Food, Food, And More Food From Plants!
Students examine the edible parts of a plant and explore their function. They define what makes a fruit classified as a fruit. They create a sketch or map or photo of a 1930s farm and justify their plant selections.
Curated OER
Leaves
In this biology worksheet, students write identify the different parts of a leaf shown in 5 different diagrams. They also complete 12 short answer questions after reading the information about leaves.
Curated OER
Seed Structure and Seed Dispersal
Third graders plant seeds. In this seed structure activity, 3rd graders identify parts of a seed and plant a lima bean seed. Students discuss and reflect on the process in their journals.
