Here's a five-star lesson plan in which inquisitors conduct sophisticated experimentation with cellular respiration in plant seeds. Placing seeds in a closed system they measure the amount carbon dioxide produced and relate it to...

Here is a fabulous, cross-curicular lesson on seeds. Elements of science, writing, math, agricultural practices, and art are all brought into this incredibly thorough plan. Additionally, a fun whole-class game is presented, and there is...

The concepts of a year, and the changing of the seasons are very important concepts to reinforce with young learners. Here, pre-kindergartners and kindergartners begin to understand the concept of one year, the passing of time, and the...

Young scholars observe the life cycle of a plant in a glove.  In this life cycle lesson plan, students read and discuss the life cycle of a plant.  Young scholars then plant seeds in a clear plastic glove and record their...

How do seeds get from a plant to the ground so they can germinate? This presentation provides the answer to seed dispersal in relation to plant reproduction. Straightforward explanations and definitions for wind, animal, burial, fruit,...

Fourth graders sort seeds and predict what conditions are needed for them to germinate. They keep the seeds moist, observe and measure their growth and graph the results. As the seeds start to grow students compare and contrast the each...

Students investigate the concept of seeds and how they can germinate. They obtain seeds and isolate them in a rubber glove before transplanting them into the ground. The lesson includes a graphic organizer for observations or information.

Students investigate how seeds are dispersed on land.  In this plant biology lesson, students use a dissecting microscope to study strawberry seeds and dandelion seeds, they draw what they see, then create a hypothesis on the seeds...

First graders read a story. In this seeds instructional activity, 1st graders read The Tiny Seed and make their own seed house. Students write down their observations and complete a worksheet.

First graders examine seeds. In this fruits and vegetables lesson, 1st graders determine what fruits and vegetables have in common. Students cut open fruits and vegetables and examine their seeds. Students describe the sizes, shapes and...

In this living organisms worksheet, 6th graders choose the multiple choice answer to 10 questions. Students then read and answer 10 statements as true or false and fill in the blanks to 5 statements.

Students demonstrate seed dispersal vectors through role-play, analyze seed types, identify plant parts, list seven conditions plants need in order to grow, and describe how seeds travel.

Young scholars discover how seeds travel from their parent plants in search of water, sunlight, and nutrients, and conduct experiments in which they note characteristics that encourage seed dispersal by means of wind, water, animal...

Students examine the variation among responses of seeds to the same dose of the same chemical. In reviewing their seed investigation, students note that sometimes not all seeds in the same bag responded in the same way.

Students explore plants and recognize that they are living things that require light and water to grow; students identify, name and match the parts of plants.

Students investigate the growing of beans by using a creative experiment. They plant and grow beans in a bag before transplanting them. The bean bag is checked several times a day and the data is recorded. The data is analyzed and...

Students study seeds and plants. In this science lesson plan, students explore seeds from various types of plants and complete a worksheet about seeds. Students discuss plants that are fruits and vegetables and where they grow.

First graders investigate the origins of vegetables. In this Science lesson, 1st graders identify where fruits and vegetables come from. Students describe how people utilize plants.

First graders explore biology by viewing PowerPoint presentations in class. In this plant life lesson, 1st graders identify the life cycle of a plant and how to properly plant a seed outside. Students view a movie about plant life and...

Students read and discuss the background of plants, seeds, and gene banks and grow seeds on their own. In this seeds lesson plan, students also use maps to identify seed banks and research plant farmers.

In this radish seed worksheet, students fill out a lab packet having to do with radish seeds. Students answer short answer questions, charts, and draw graphs of their results.

In this gardening and foods worksheet, students plan a garden, figure out what the garden will produce and how much money it will make, then read a selection about garden seeds and answer questions about each paragraph.

Second graders are given a group of seeds and put in small groups. They classify their seeds based on their observations with 90% accuracy. Students draw a picture of each seed showing at least 2 characteristics of each. They write 1...

Students grow flower and vegetable transplants from seed in the school greenhouse. They properly plant seeds, transplant seedlings, and care for the plants by using recommended culture methods. In addition, they identify the various...
