Slide 4

What we are studying and why? Today we are going to be studying the life cycle of a plant. Plants are a vital part of our every day lives. They provide nutrients, herbs, food and much more. It is important we realize plants are constantly changing and that we are able to identify those changes. Teachers

MENU Quiz 2. Seed Growth 3. Plant Parts 4. Plant Growth 5. Review 1. Seed Dispersal

Slide 6

Seed Dispersal There are many kinds of seeds and each grow a different kind of plant, but where do seeds come from? Menu

Slide 7

Seed Dispersal The seeds grow in the fruit of the plant. The fruit of a plant grows during the spring and summer, like this apple tree shows.

Slide 8

Seed Dispersal Plants become dormant during the fall and winter months. There are a number of ways that the seeds can leave the plant.dormant Menu

Slide 9

Dormant When a plant is dormant it is during the fall and winter months. At this time the plant is not dead, just slowly growing.

Slide 10

Seed Dispersal WindWind can blow the seeds and spread them around. Menu

Slide 11

Seed Dispersal Seeds in a pod can also burstburst open and be spread around in this way. Menu

Slide 12

Seed Dispersal Plants can also shake seeds off the plant.shake Menu

Slide 13

Seed Dispersal WaterWater can carry the seeds to different areas. Menu

Slide 14

Seed Dispersal Seeds can be carried away ifcarried they get caught on something. Menu

Slide 15

Seed Dispersal AnimalsAnimals eat seeds and they can be dispersed in that way. Menu

Slide 16

Seed Dispersal Sometimes seeds can just fall and roll away.fall and roll Menu

Slide 17

Seed Dispersal There are many ways seeds can be dispersed, but no matter which way they leave the plant they will eventually begin growing in the ground. Menu End of section Click on menu

Slide 18

Seed Growth Now that we have learned how seeds are dispersed, it is time we discover how seeds grow into plants! Menu

Slide 19

Seed Growth First seeds are planted in the ground. Menu

Slide 20

Seed Growth Roots begin to grow helping the seeds get nutrients. A shoot (a small stem) starts to grow out of the seed and up towards the ground. Menu

Slide 21

Seed Growth When the shoot reaches the surface of the soil, it becomes a sprout. Menu

Slide 22

Seed Growth Water, air, sunlight and nutrients from the soil help the sprout grow and turn into a seedling.seedling Menu

Slide 23

Seedling A seedling is a small plant with very few leaves.

Slide 24

Seed Growth The seedling is now a young plant and plant growth is now noticeable. Menu

Slide 25

Seed Growth Do you know the order of seed growth? If you are unsure, review this part of the lesson again. Menu End of section Click on menu

Slide 26

Plant Parts It is important that we can identify the parts of plants so we know how the plant grows and what the parts do. Menu

Slide 27

Plant Parts Menu Seed Roots Stem Leaf Flower Shoot Fruit

Slide 28

Plant Parts Can you identify all parts of the plant? Menu End of section Click on menu

Slide 29

Plant Growth As a young plant grows into an adult it grows more leaves and becomes a healthier and larger plant. Menu

Slide 30

Plant Growth However, if plants do not receive proper care or have to live in unfit conditions they will not grow as well. Plant Growth Menu

Slide 31

Plant Growth Next, the plant will grow flowers or blooms which will then eventually grow fruit. Menu

Slide 32

Plant Growth The fruit grows during the spring and summer months, and when ripened can be harvested by humans or animals. Menu

Slide 33

Plant Growth As we have already mentioned before, the fruit contains the seeds and when the fruit has been produced the seeds can begin to be dispersed. Menu

Slide 34

Plant Growth Menu Once the seeds are dispersed, the plant begins to become dormant. This is the last stage in the life cycle. When spring comes, dormancy will end and the life cycle will begin again.

Slide 35

Plant Growth See a corn plant grow by watching this video! Menu

Slide 36

Plant Growth If you have questions about the plant life cycle, try going through parts of the lesson again or ask your teacher. If you know the material, you can move on to the review. Keep up the good work! Menu End of section Click on menu

Slide 37

Review Great work! You have now gone through the whole lesson and it is time to review for the quiz. Menu

Slide 87

Teachers Target Audience Third grade Indiana rural students. Class size around 25 students Ages ranging from 8-10 years old. Children with special needs can receive help from a teaching assistant.

Slide 88

Teachers Learning Environment: Students will be sitting at individual computers with head phones on in a computer lab. The teacher will be walking around helping any student who needs help.

Slide 89

Teachers Objectives: For students to be able to identify and explain the life cycle of a plant from the being stage as a seed through dormancy by taking a 10 question quiz and getting 100% accuracy. 3.5.5 Explain that one way to make sense of something is to think of how it relates to something more familiar. 3.6.4 Take, record and display counts and simple measurements of things over time, such as plant or student growth. 3.6.5 Observe that and describe how some changes are very slow and some are very fast and that some of these changes may be hard to see and/or record

Slide 90

Quiz This picture does not show the full order of seed growth, keep trying.

Slide 91

Quiz Good answer! It starts out as a seed, grows roots and a shoot, reaches the earths surface and is a sprout. It then becomes a seedling, and finally a young adult plant.

Slide 92

Quiz This picture is missing a few steps that were covered in this lesson, try reviewing Seed Growth and try the quiz again.

Slide 93

Quiz Sorry try again. This picture does not show the correct seed growth.

Slide 94

Quiz Sorry, you selected some of the plant parts but this list is not complete.

Slide 95

Quiz Way to go! This picture shows all the plant parts.

Slide 96

Quiz Try again, there are more plant parts than this.

Slide 97

Review The fruit of plants contain seeds. Plants need plenty of water and sun to grow, plus air and soil. In the spring, plants begin to grow leaves. In the summer, they are fully mature. In the fall, they change color. In the winter, they have lost all their leaves. Menu

Slide 98

Review Flowers only appear on mature plants. Seed growth: seed, seed with roots and shoot, sprout, then seedling. Seeds can be dispersed by animals, people, wind, water, falling, rolling, and shaking. Menu
