PARTS OF A PLANT

A plant has many parts. Different parts perform different functionalities.

In order for students to recognize the differents parts of a plant and their functions we are going to make differents activities . 

Video:

Activities:

In pairs the students read the text and find the functions of the differents parts of a plant  and match them.

Then they paste them in their notebooks

Finally we will review the contents with kahoot!

PARTS OF A FLOWER

Flower

Flowers are the reproductive organs of the flowering plant.

The main structures of a flower include:

• Sepal - The sepal is a support structure for the petal. It is typically green and helps to protect and hold up the petal. All the sepals together are called the calyx.
• Petal - The petals are the bright colorful leaves of the flower. The petals are often bright and colorful in order to attract insects that help with pollination. All of the petals together are called the corolla.
• Stamen - The stamen is the part of the flower that produces pollen. There are two main parts of the stamen: the filament and anther.
• Filament - The filament is the stalk that holds the anther.
• Anther - The anther is made up of lobes that attach to the filament. These lobes hold sacs which contain pollen.
• Pistil - The pistil is the female part of the flower. It contains the carpel and the stigma.
• Stigma - The stigma is the area where pollen is received. The stigma may be located at the end of a stalk called the style.
•  Ovary of the flower and contains ovules which are potential seeds. 

Activities:

To recognize the differents parts of a flower and their functions in plants reproduction we  will do the following activities:

 1.-Read the parts and their functions in this  Presentation

2.- Make a worksheet in our interactive notebook.

3.-  We review with this  Quiz about parts of a flower.

SCIENCE NOTEBOOK

The students had  a chance to personalize their science notebooks by decorating the cover. We think that this is a funny and  great way to start the school year!

Just click here and print de covers .

THERE ISN'T A PLANET B

INITIAL EVALUATION: LET'S PLAY!

How much you know about living things?

In the link ( click  here)  you can access the questionnaire that we have used. 

This questionnaire allow us to review aspects related to living things in a fun way.

WELCOME BACK TO SCHOOL !

Welcome back!!

We hope you had enjoying a wonderful summer. We also hope you are  recharged and ready to start a new school year. We are so delighted that
 you are part of our amazing school.

We know we will make this school year one of growth and achievement for all children.

OUR SYSTEMS

With this activity I expect the students to identify and locate the major organs involved in vital bodily functions in the digestive system, excretory system, respiratory system and nervous system.


The steps to make the human body systems project have been:

First step: make the silhouette on white paper and cut it out.

Second step: coloring with chalk

Third step: using the Science book to draw and paste in its corresponding place each of the organs and its name in English.

 And this is the end result!

        Con esta actividad espero que los estudiantes identifiquen y localicen los órganos principales involucrados en las funciones corporales vitales en el sistema digestivo, sistema excretor, sistema respiratorio y sistema nervioso.

Los pasos que hemos seguido para realizar cada uno de los aparatos del cuerpo  han sido:

Primer paso: realizar la silueta de un compañero del equipo en papel continuo de color blanco  y recortarla.
Segundo paso. dar color usando una tiza rosa , naranja...
Tercer paso: dibujar y pegar los órganos de cada uno de los aparatos y completarlos con su correspondiente nombre en inglés.
