This lesson begins with a recap on pollination, students are asked to complete a ‘fill-in-the-blank’ task which outlines the roles of the male and female reproductive parts of the flower. This work can be self-assessed using the mark scheme provided.
Next, students will need to watch a video on fertilisation, during which they will answer a set of questions. Once this task has been completed, students should self-assess their work using the mark scheme provided.
Students will now study the structure and function of a seed, the first task is a memory test. Students will have a few minutes to study a diagram of a seed with the labels included, the labels will then be taken away and students will have a few minutes to recreate the diagram - including the correct labels. Students can check their work against the answers provided once this is complete.
Next, students will be asked to ‘Think > Pair > Share’ their ideas on the conditions required for a seed to germinate. Students can firstly discuss their ideas in pairs, then they will need to note their ideas down on a mind map. The answers will then be revealed on the PowerPoint for students to check their work and make corrections.
Lastly, students are given a set of sentences which contain true and false statements about what they have learned so far on pollination and fertilisation. Students will need to mark and correct the work, this task can also be self-assessed using the mark scheme provided.
The plenary requires students to write a twitter message demonstrating what they have learned this lesson, making sure to #keywords.
