In this lesson, pupils look at how photosynthesis can be manipulated t create large crop yields. Pupils look at poly tunnels and hydroponics in detail and compare the advantages and disadvantages of the two. They answer past exam questions on both factors.
Design a greenhouse:
Pupils then take part in an independent learning task whereby they become experts on their chosen factor that effects photosynthesis. They then meet up with one person from each team "the experts" on their own factors. They then get into groups to create posters designing their ideal greenhouse.
Once they have designed their own greenhouse, pupils peer assess the designs on the posters and write the groups a feedback love letter with an essential WWW and EBI. Pupils also have prompt cards and sheets to help with the designing of the post cards.
I have found that the prompt cards work better for less confident pupils or pupils of a lower ability.
Highly successful lesson :)
