- 1. A Day in the Life by Jill Fleming by WebQuest Description: A progression through a series of differing stages plant of development. Grade Level: 3-5 Curriculum: Science Keywords: Plants, vegetation, life cycle, growth Published On: Last Modified: 2013-09-23 00:36:23 WebQuest URL: http://zunal.com/webquest.php?w=209922 Life of a Plant A plant will grow from a tiny seed, Some water and sun is all you need. First the roots grown underground, They suck up minerals from all around. Then come stems, some tall, some stout, And next the branches spread about. Leaves grow in all shapes and sizes, Watch this new life as it rises. Flowers bloom from buds on stems, They are as pretty as precious gems. Some plants give us juicy fruit, Some have vegetables at the root. New seeds travel to and fro, By wind and water, on the go. And the cycle keeps on going, Soon new stems and leaves are showing. - Risa Jordan Students will create a summary of what they've learned from their experiments about lifecycle of plants through any of the following media PowerPoint, Prezi, HyperStudio, YouTube, or Camtasia. You will learn about the parts of a plant and a seed, we will plant seeds and observe and record their growth.ObjectivesYou will:Identify parts of a seed.Identify parts of a plant.Materials to be used include:LeavesSeeds to plantClear plastic cups (1 per student)Cotton balls (1 per student)Computer(s), smartphone or tablets with Internet accessPowerPoint, Prezi, HyperStudio, YouTube, or CamtasiaOn Day 1, as a class we will access The Great Plant Escape http://urbanext.illinois.edu/gpe/index.cfm and explore Case 1: In Search of Green Life. You will define the terms related to the parts of a plant and seed. Begin a wall chart or use Inspiration software to make a concept map of a plant.As a class we will go outside to gather material such as a leaves. You will cover the leaves with a piece of white paper, and color over the leaf on the paper. You will observe what happens, and then describe the colored pictures in written format in your science journal or audio format on science blog. On Day 2, you will be given a seed/or can bring some from store, a cotton ball, and a plastic cup. You will soak your cotton balls in water, place one in a clear plastic cup, and then place the seed on top of the cotton ball. Tell students to illustrate in their journals what they've done, and to label the parts of the seed.On Day 3, you will check the seeds and record the appearance. We will take a few minutes to visit Growing Plants Indoors http://urbanext.illinois.edu/gpe/case1/c1facts3a.html and discuss what plants need to grow. Also record science information in journal or science blogOn Day 4, You will illustrate results of plant growth. We will also review the key words for parts of plants and seeds; add any new terms to the wall chart or concept map.On Day 5, use graphing software, to generate graphs of the plants' growth. Once created students will use graph as part of final presentation of the lifecycle process. Find the letters about plant lifecycle and solve the answer to phrase:http://puzzlemaker.discoveryeducation.com/code/BuildHiddenMessageWordSearch.aspGuess the plant part for different foods:http://www.mbgnet.net/bioplants/supermkt.html

Score Does not perform duties associated with assignment. Total Score How do plants grow?We have found that when a seed falls to the ground it starts what is known as The Life Cycle. The plant life cycle begins with a seed. The seed will sprout and produce a tiny, small plant called a seedling. The seedling will grow to larger and form a big plant and as the seeds mature or ripen, the flowers will eventually fade away or drop. Once the seeds have dried, they are ready to be planted (or stored), repeating the life cycle of a plant all over again. Congratulations!You have learned about the parts of a plant, about seeds, and about a plants life cycle. This Webquest is about the parts of a plant and the elements plants need in order to grow. Learning about what are the parts of a seed. Understanding the stages of plant development. The lesson is meant to be interactive with use of multimedia for students to explain their understanding of the lifecycle of plants. The lesson is designed to take one week since I want the student to see how seeds develop into plants.
