Work samples, phenomena, assessment templates, and videos that directly address standard 3-LS1-1: plant and animal life cycles.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] The life cycle of a plant is very different from the life cycle of an animal. Humans are made entirely of diploid cells (cells with two sets of chromosomes). Our...

Students will listen, watch, and read while the teacher goes over the life cycle of the ferns. Students will then use the textbook or Internet websites to draw, label, decorate, or color the life cycle of ferns. Students will also use...

Describes the life cycle of a plant as it develops from a seed into a seedling, grows into a mature plant, develops flower buds, goes through pollination and double fertilization, and produces seeds.

This is an inquiry based cooperative learning unit that can be used in biology as a graduation exam review or in botany for a nine week project. The students will learn the life cycle of mosses, ferns, gymnosperms and angiosperms. The...

Explains what the parts of a flowering plant are and how the plant develops from a seed. Discusses fertilization through pollination, the formation of the endosperm and fruit, and the repetition of the life cycle all over again when the...

Photomicrographs and diagrams make this resource a great tool for studying reproduction and development. Use this along with your lab material on plants.

Very detailed outline describing several aspects of plant diversity, including vascular vs. nonvascular, evolutionary adaptations, homosporous and heterosporous life cycles, and specific information on some ancient species (Lycophytes,...

Site covers all aspects of plant reproduction such as life cycles, angiosperms and flowers. Provides links to other sites to aide in research.

Second graders will plant seeds and chart their growth.

This is an interdisciplinary language development unit addressing science and language arts standards designed for English Language Learners. In the week-long unit students will learn the life cycle of plants and discuss various uses for...

Plants are one of the two major Kingdoms of living creatures on the Earth. They are the only beings which produce their own food. Additionally, plants are necessary for animals to live. Plant anatomy, life cycle, reproduction and the...

The learners will be collecting, germinating and planting seeds to show the process of plant growth. The students will be recording the information in their science journal. In addition, the learners will be observing the water cycle as...

Scholars explore the biology concept of the oxygen cycle. The tutorial consists of definitions and pictures about animal and plant gas exchange.

This lesson engages students in learning about plant growth. Students will observe changes in a growing plant and then will write in their discovery journals to write observations and hypotheses about the plant growth. Students will also...

Students will research printed encyclopedias, Internet resources (thinkfinity.org) and their science textbook to gather information to answer questions and draw an assigned portion of the Life Cycle of the Gymnosperms. This lesson plan...

This resource explains how the alternation of generations occurs in a plant's life cycle where sporophytes and gametophytes each play a role in plant reproduction.

This simple lesson plan is designed to help young learners be aware of how seeds sprout, and that seeds grow into plants.

Page describes Photosynthesis in great detail. Provides an extensive amount of links on all different aspects of photosynthesis. Very thourough.
