3.L.2.1 Remember the function of the following structures as it relates to the survival of plants
in their environments:
• Roots – absorb nutrients
• Stems – provide support
• Leaves – synthesize food
• Flowers – attract pollinators and produce seeds for reproduction.
3.L.2.2 Explain how environmental conditions determine how well plants survive and grow.
3.L.2.3 Summarize the distinct stages of the life cycle of seed plants.
3.L.2.4 Explain how the basic properties (texture and capacity to hold water) and components
(sand, clay and humus) of soil determine the ability of soil to support the growth and
survival of many plants.]]> 2021-10-22 00:54:13 UTC https://padlet.com/alc1943/11zw90r7lp9gqskr/wish/1835020927 alc1943 https://padlet.com/alc1943/11zw90r7lp9gqskr/wish/1835063449 1. Life cycle

Students are experiencing a hands-on learning activity with familiar objects, yet an unfamiliar concept, which can foster curiosity. Students will bring in a scrap of their choosing (from a list made by the teacher or found on the document) and will be able to plant it. Students can then observe the plant go through the life cycle stages and keep track of watering, sunlight, and growth in journals. ]]> 2021-10-22 03:18:02 UTC https://padlet.com/alc1943/11zw90r7lp9gqskr/wish/1835342947 alc1943 https://padlet.com/alc1943/11zw90r7lp9gqskr/wish/1835368093 With this PBS learning activity, students can use the "See, Think, Wonder" thinking routine, as well as critical thinking questions that create curiosity and wonder in the students. Students are shown a flowering potted plant and asked to locate the different parts of the plants, then are shown a fruit, such as a lemon cut open with the seeds exposed. Students can the infer what the parts of the plants do and which part of the plant grows first. A time lapse is shown, in which students use to correct their predictions from earlier and elaborate. Students then go over the life cycle of humans and are given creative freedom to draw plant and human stages that they think correspond with each other. The activity not only incorporates many different types of materials, but it also creates a space that the children can explore and develop their ideas and what they are learning. ]]> 2021-10-22 03:30:20 UTC https://padlet.com/alc1943/11zw90r7lp9gqskr/wish/1835368093 alc1943 https://padlet.com/alc1943/11zw90r7lp9gqskr/wish/1837083415 Learning Activity 12, located on page 54 of the document, was designed for 3rd grade students in Chapel Hill Carrboro City Schools. Students are given the handout and taken to either a hiking trail or a contained outside environment and must complete the scavenger hunt. Some of the findings need to be measured with rulers, incorporating math, and once they have checked most or all of the findings they can draw and describe some of them in their journals. Students are able to be independent in their search and use creativity in the drawings. The end of the assignment can be changed to correspond with the ELA curriculum, for example, instead of drawing and describing findings, they can be instructed to write a poem incorporating a certain number of plants they observed. ]]> 2021-10-22 19:22:21 UTC https://padlet.com/alc1943/11zw90r7lp9gqskr/wish/1837083415 alc1943 https://padlet.com/alc1943/11zw90r7lp9gqskr/wish/1837100008 This lesson, which I designed using a template from my EDN 301 class, instructs students to create their own make-believe plant based off an assigned environment and then create a care instruction sheet for it. This concept focuses on giving the students creative freedom when designing their plant, as well as reinforcing their knowledge of how certain environments effect the growth of plants. ]]> 2021-10-22 19:34:46 UTC https://padlet.com/alc1943/11zw90r7lp9gqskr/wish/1837100008 alc1943 https://padlet.com/alc1943/11zw90r7lp9gqskr/wish/1837111493 Focusing on the second activity on this PDF, the students are to move around in stations and explore different types of soil hands-on. Students can use their previous knowledge to infer what type of soil would be suitable for plant growth and experiment with the soil by giving the different types drops of water. The activity is engaging and prompts students to wonder and create their own questions regarding soil and plant growth. ]]> 2021-10-22 19:43:21 UTC https://padlet.com/alc1943/11zw90r7lp9gqskr/wish/1837111493
