  3. NYS- SCOPE & SEQUENCE STANDARDS

  4. LESSON 2: EVERY PLANT HAS ITS PURPOSE • Bloom’s Taxonomy: Knowledge, Comprehension, Analysis, Synthesis, Application • Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences: Environmental, Mathematical/Logical, Intrapersonal • Activities Included: Line graph

  5. LESSON 2: EVERY PLANT HAS ITS PURPOSE • Behavioral Objectives: 1. To measure the height of the plant and add data to line graph. 2. To create a representation of a plant part using modeling clay and label the parts. 3. To label the parts of a plant and describe the functions of various plant parts (Plant Worksheet). 4. To write a journal entry using the prompt “What I Contribute to My Classroom.”

  6. Lesson 4: Traits of plants • Bloom’s Taxonomy: Knowledge, Comprehension, Analysis, • Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences: Environmental, Mathematical/Logical, Intrapersonal , Visual-Spatial • Activities Included: Bar graph, pictograph, puppetry, manipulative task: grouping objects

  7. Lesson 4: Traits of plants • Behavioral Objectives: • To compare and contrast the different traits of plants including stem, branch, leaves, flower, fruit and seed using a Venn diagram. • To create a pictograph and/or bar graph that displays a common trait that plants have.

  8. Lesson 5: Scavenger Hunt- Learning and Discovering Plant-Life • Bloom’s Taxonomy: Comprehension, Application, Analysis, Synthesis, and Evaluation, • Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences: Visual/Spatial, Interpersonal, and Logical- Mathematical • Activities Included: Web-based Scavenger Hunt, Filamentality Website, Graphic Organizer, and Estimation/Measurement Worksheet

  9. Lesson 5: Scavenger Hunt- Learning and Discovering Plant-Life • Behavioral Objectives: 1.Students will work independently and use technology to complete an internet-based scavenger hunt on the different topics related to plant-life. 2. Students will use their knowledge on the different parts of the plant, and estimate and measure the growth of their plants. . 3. Students will use the knowledge learned through scavenger hunt to add details to their plant puppets Estimation Worksheet
