7th Grade Presentation

This science class covers three objectives: 1) learning that flowers are adapted to attract specific pollinators, 2) practicing constructing explanations grounded in scientific data, and 3) learning that many plants depend on animals for pollination and many pollinators depend on plants for food. The class involves students being divided into groups, reading about pollination, observing flower diagrams and pollinator profiles, roleplaying the pollination process, selecting flowers that would attract their assigned pollinator, and presenting their choices to the class.

attract specific pollinators.

s
OUR SECOND OBJECTIVE:
practice constructing explanations grounded
in scientific data.

OUR THIRD OBJECTIVE:

for pollination and many pollinators
depend on plants for food.
lets get

What are your favorite
flowers?
Why do plants have flowers?

the stigma. (self-
pollination)
Flowers can’t do it
themselves!!
Let's observe
and investigate
Can you find all of the
parts on the Flower
Diagram?
Why do pollinators
(birds, insects, bats)
visit flowers?
Let's play and
learn!!
role-play the
pollination process
Activity Time Let's Practice!

Activity procedure :one

Each group will pick a


name of a pollinator from
the jar
Activity Time Let's Practice!

Activity procedure :one

please take and read your


Pollinator Observation
Data Sheets and take time
to read the descriptions of
all the flowers and look at
the data before answering
the questions On the back.
Activity Time Let's Practice!

Activity procedure : Two

please take and read your


Constructing Explanations
sheets and the Pollinator
Profile cards. Each group
should get the Pollinator
Profile that corresponds to
their pollinator.
Activity Time Let's Practice!

Activity procedure : Two

now that you read


Constructing Explanations
sheets and the Pollinator
Profile, you have more
info to write down 3
flower traits that are
attractive to their
pollinator
Activity Time Let's Practice!

Activity procedure : Three

THE IMAGINARY
FLOWER GARDEN.

Come gather around the


garden
Activity Time Let's Practice!

Activity procedure : Three

Your job is to find one


flower that your pollinator
would be most attracted to,
based on your observation
data and the information in
your Pollinator Profile.
Activity Time Let's Practice!

Activity procedure : Three

Each group should work


together to select one
flower that their pollinator
would be attracted to.
Once you have selected
your flower, take it back to
your table.
Activity Time Let's Practice!

Activity procedure : Three

On your Constructing
Explanations sheet, circle
which flower you chose
and write one sentence
describing why that flower
would attract your
pollinator.
present your flowers
to the class and
explain why it would
be attractive to your
pollinator.
