Third graders plant seeds. In this seed structure lesson, 3rd graders identify parts of a seed and plant a lima bean seed.  Students discuss and reflect on the process in their journals. 

Students investigate how plants grow in different biomes. In this biomes lesson plan, students plant sees of impatiens, lima beans and rye seeds in egg cartons. When the plants begin to grow they simulate the assigned biome conditions...

Each student plants two lima beans in a plastic cup with a paper towel so they can be observed growing. The beans are misted with a spray bottle, and placed in a warm sunny area. Students view the beans each day for the next two weeks,...

Fifth graders plant and take care of a lima bean plant and make predictions on its growth.  In this science lesson plan, 5th graders chart their records and make conclusions about their experiment. 

Young scholars look at seeds and plants. In this plant lesson plan, students observe dry lima beans and soaked lima beans to find the different parts of seeds. They read the book Miss Rumpius by Barbara Cooney and "plant" their seeds in...

Learners understand the stages of a plants life. In this stages of plant development lesson, students read about bean plants and grow their own. Learners record growth and photograph changes in their plants. Students label the parts of a...

Students investigate seeds and their growth. In this agriculture lesson, students read the book How a Seed Grows and discuss the seed cycle. Students examine real seeds and identify their properties. Students create a set of sequencing...

Student groups use lima beans to represent dicots and corn to represent monocots, soak the seeds, and separate the embryos from the cotyledons. They then place the seeds in Petri dishes in agar and observe for at least one week recording...

Students observe beans germinating in a plastic bag.  In this bean growing lesson, students predict what their beans will look like. Students draw illustrations to record the changes in their bean plants. Students should also note...

Students discover the importance of seeds in relationship to nature.  In this plant growth lesson plan, students create a collection of seeds and discover the best type of environment to plant them.  Students plant their own...

Third graders brainstorm the effects of light on the growth of plants. In groups, they participate in various activities in which they grow alfalfa sprouts and lima beans. They complete a worksheet on how the varying amount of light...

Eleventh graders are introduced to the effect of gravity on plant growth. They describe the major processes and mechanisms by which plants grow, develop, and supply various products, including energy and nutrition, needed by other...

Third graders observe plants and record their growth. They describe the parts of plants in detail including the roots, stems and leaves.

Third graders investigate how a seed germinate to become a plant. They study a lima bean to review the parts of seeds.

Students observe the growth of a seed into a plant. They plant their own seeds and record the growth of the plants and write about what they observe. They describe the germination of the seed and create a time line of the growth process...

In this garden worksheet, students plant different types of food from the food pyramid into a garden and write a journal about all of the food. Students plant 4 levels of food from the food pyramid.

Students explain that events in nature follow an orderly progression when they plant seeds and observe the development of the seeds. They count seeds and find the likenesses and the differences of many seeds.

Investigate the structure of seeds and the effects of fertilizer on the growth of plants. Young scientists observe a peanut and determine if it is a monocot or dicot plant. They plant seeds and make varying solutions of fertilizer, then...

Students examine the inside of a seed to see the beginnings of a plant. They identify the elements that plants need to grow and survive. They grow their seeds in the classroom.

Young scholars discover bar graphs. In this primary math lesson plan, students identify the parts of watermelon seeds and other seeds. Young scholars learn the proper names and common names which refer to the parts of the seeds as they...

Students sort through numerous seeds to find similarities and differences. In this sorting and classifying lesson, students divide up different plant seeds based on their similarities and differences, while keeping record of their findings.

Students read The Garden by Arnold Lobel, plant seeds to discover what makes them grow, and record their observations in their journals.

For this earth science worksheet, students identify and discover the amazing ways that desert plants adapt to harsh habitats. They use discussion and drawing to explore their existing knowledge about deserts. Then, students respond to 15...

Middle schoolers observe how the bean seed has changed after being soaked in water overnight and record their observations. They open the bean and observe the inside. Finally, students draw and label the parts of a bean seed and write...
