Students are able to draw a diagram of the light reactions and briefly describe what is occurring throughout the process. They are able to explain where each reactant/product in the photosynthesis equation comes from/goes during the...

In this photosynthesis worksheet, pupils complete a crossword puzzle with 26 questions on the processes involved in photosynthesis.

Provide your class with the opportunity to view our carbon cycle close up. Young scientists research the cycle of oxygen as it completes the tasks of photosynthesis and respiration. They explore the importance of carbon in an ecosystem...

Fourteen questions about photosynthesis are presented for life science learners. First, they write out the names of compounds involved in the process. They answer a few questions, and then fill in the blanks. This concise assignment...

In this photosynthesis instructional activity, students learn how plants use the sun to convert energy into food. They then answer 10 questions using the information they just read. The answers are on the last page.

Young scientists learn what it takes for life on Earth to survive with this series of photosynthesis resources. Offering twelve different activities ranging from independent practice worksheets to in depth scientific...

Cellular respiration and photosynthesis relate closely, but many don't realize how. Scholars drag and drop the reactants and products to the chemical reactions for both processes. Then they answer three multiple-choice questions.

Fifth graders participate in scientific inquires regarding the concepts of photosynthesis and cell respiration. In this photosynthesis and cell respiration lesson, 5th graders describe the process of photosynthesis with relation to...

Students investigate photosynthesis in water plants. In this photosynthesis lesson plan, students use the elodea plant and observe gas bubbles released to determine the rate of photosynthesis. They vary the light intensity and the amount...

Students explore the processes of photosynthesis and respiration. For this photosynthesis and respiration lesson plan, students learn about the role of the chloroplasts in photosynthesis and about the role of mitochondria in respiration...

Students demonstrate the effects of photosynthesis and respiration. They decide which variables to analyze in a microcosm study. They produce a written paper, oral presentation, poster, or multi-media presentation

In this photosynthesis, disease and Immune System worksheet, students fill in the blanks with key terms to complete sentences about the transfer of energy from the sun to plants, enzymes as catalysts in reactions, homeostasis, the immune...

Students examine the differences between cellular respiration and photosynthesis.  In this cellular processes lesson students complete a group lab activity to see how climate change affects their lives. 

Students investigate the amount of starch in a plant under 3 different conditions. In this photosynthesis lesson plan, students compare the amount of starch in a plant with increased carbon dioxide conditions, a plant with decreased...

Ninth graders examine the structure and function of biomolecules. In this food molecule lesson, 9th graders will examine various  types of biomolecules such as  carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. They will...

In this biology instructional activity, students explain where the energy of food originally came from. Then the explain one of the principal chemical compounds that living things use to store energy. Students also describe how ATP and...

Fourth graders discuss and identify the components of photosynthesis and the products of this process. They participate in a class discussion about the importance of oxygen, and in small groups act out the process of photosynthesis. ...

Students review the objectives for the light and dark reactions on photosynthesis. They discuss the conversion of Carbon dioxide to simple sugars occurs in the light independent reactions. Students are given the question of the day. ...

In this photosynthesis summary, 6th graders read the one page passage which contains vocabulary, definitions and a summary of the process, then answer 2 guided reading questions.

Students simulate Joseph Priestley's experiments using a bell jar. They demonstrate that oxygen is necessary for fire and animals but that given time, plants can create oxygen, allowing fires to burn and animals to breathe.

Students examine the process of photosynthesis; its products and reactants, and the sequence of the process. They diagram the light reactions, record observations of plants, and discuss how difficult it is to measure plant growth as it...

In this photosynthesis worksheet, students are given a diagram of photosynthesis and words that correlate with the process. They use the words to fill in the blanks about the process and the structures involved in photosynthesis.

Third graders discuss how humans breathe and how plants help us to stay alive. In groups, they identify and label the different parts of plants and describe their functions. They compare and contrast the ways plants and animals breathe...

Students investigate how plants absorb carbon dioxide during photosynthesis. In this biology lesson plan, students differentiate photosynthesis and cellular respiration. They discuss the important role of plants in the environment.
