Content Area: ScienceGrade Level: 1st gradeSummary: The purpose of this instructional Power point is to teach students about the different life cycles of plants and how they grow and change. Learning Objective: Given information presented throughout the power point students will need to be able to recall facts and the order of a plant’s life cycle with 100% accuracy. Content Standard: Grade 1: Standard 3- Flow of Matter and Energy; Matter and energy flow through the biosphereAccomplishment: Describe what plants need in order to grow and remain healthy.GLE 0107.3.1: Recognize that plants and animals are living things that grow and change over time.

What is a Cycle?

• A cycle is a sequence of events that repeat themselves.• Can you name

any cycles?

The Four Stages of The Plant Cycle

1.Seed2.Germination3.Mature Plant4.Pollination

Page 5: The Plant Life Cycle

Stage 1- Seed

• The life cycle of a plant begins with a seed.

• A small seed will need water, light, heat and minerals to grow and become a seedling which is apart of the germination stage.

Page 6: The Plant Life Cycle

Let’s take a moment to think…

With the person sitting next to you, write down what a seed needs to

grow and why you may think those things are

important!!

Stage 2- Germination

• The second stage is the germination stage. At this point the seed begins to sprout leaves and grow roots into the ground.

• The seed has transformed into a tiny plant.

Stage 3- Mature Plant

• In this stage, the plant is fully grown and most plants in the mature stage or adult stage produce flowers or fruits.

• The plant is also ready to pollinate and this is preparation for the next stage.

Stage 4- Pollination

• The last stage is the pollination stage. This is where plants reproduce. The pollen has to reach the ovules of a plant to make seeds and start the life cycle all over again.

Let’s watch a video to help better understand the stages of the plant life cycle and how plants pollinate.

Let’s take a quick quiz!

Let’s Review!

• There are four stages to the plant life cycle, seed,

germination, mature plant and pollination.

• A plant starts out as a small seed, then begins germinating which produces a tiny plant. The tiny plant grows into a mature plant which pollinates and reproduces by producing seeds to start the

cycle all over again.
