Plant anatomy, photosynthesis and life cycle from pollination through fertilisation and seed dispersal to germination, use his innovative, enjoyable and challenging escape room lesson to consolidate learning after teaching the topic or as test prep.
Students have to work their way through the clues to find the code to a combination lock on the school exam paper store in which the substitute teacher has been accidentally locked in the stationery store.
What You Get
- PowerPoint – scene setting and instructions (sound effects and built-in timer);
- crossword;
- word search;
- dominoes activity;
- worksheet;
- code breaker sheets for 3 and 4 activities;
- answer keys;
- lesson plan.
If time is limited just the crossword, word search and domino can be used. The worksheet is the most challenging clue to solve and this can be omitted completely for less able classes.
Both 3 and 4 number combination locks can be purchased very cheaply online or the teacher can pretend to phone the school office for the staff to attempt to release the teacher.
Full instructions are given on the PowerPoint itself.

Plant Anatomy Life Cycle Photosynthesis Complete Module 5 Lessons 7 Games Plus Revision Lesson
Plant anatomy, photosynthesis and life cycle from pollination through fertilisation and seed dispersal to germination are explained in these five engaging fully resourced lessons, each of which comes with an animated PowerPoint which makes teaching and learning very easy. This pack contains two virtual investigations. Also included is a quiz-base test prep lesson which produces a personal revision sheet for each student. To reinforce learning or for test prep, this pack comes with seven enjoyable games which are suitable for all abilities. Many of the games could be used for cover lessons, even when taken by a non-specialist as they come with a hard-copy and/or PowerPoint of the answers. It is also the ideal end of term/year pack. **What’s Included** **Lessons** * Plant Parts * Photosynthesis facts * Virtual investigation 1 – does light intensity affect the rate of photosynthesis * Virtual investigation 2 – testing a leaf for starch * Life Cycle of the Flowering Plant – pollination, fertilization, dispersal, germination **Games** * Find the Pair - anatomy and photosynthesis * Find the Pair - anatomy and life cycle * Smart Board Bingo – anatomy, life cycle and photosynthesis * Forces Board Game - anatomy, life cycle and photosynthesis * Dominoes - anatomy and photosynthesis * Dominoes - anatomy and life cycle * Save the Substitute Teacher Escape Room - anatomy, life cycle and photosynthesis Each lesson comes complete with an animated PowerPoint, at least 10 printables, an answer/mark scheme PowerPoint and a suggested one-page flow-chart lesson plan which indicates where logical choices between printables enables the lesson to be totally tailored to suit the needs of your particular students. These lesson promote the development of literacy and oracy and the separate answer/mark scheme PowerPoints enable easy self and peer-assessment. The virtual investigations take the student through prediction, planning drawing a graph and conclusion. They can be used as instructions for the student to follow to perform their own experiment or the scientifically accurate animations themselves can be used to obtain results. **What’s Covered** * Root, stem and leaf are plant organs. * Flower is an organ system. * Function of root, stem and leaf. * Transpiration. * Labelling parts of a flower. * Carpel and stamen are the female and male reproductive organs. * Role of played by xylem, phloem, guard cells, stomata and chloroplasts in photosynthesis. * Graphing rate of photosynthesis against, carbon dioxide concentration, light intensity and temperature. * Word equations for photosynthesis and respiration. * Comparison of photosynthesis and respiration. * Paraffin heaters as sources of carbon dioxide in greenhouses. * Use of glucose in plants. * Gas exchange in plants at different times of day. * Testing a leaf for starch – investigation. * Effect of light intensity on rate of photosynthesis – investigation. * Pollination, self-pollination and cross-pollination explained. * How some plants prevent self-pollination and why. * Comparing the features of flowers pollinated by insects and wind. * Fertilization - how it happens. * What is a fruit with examples. * Why seed dispersal is essential for reducing competition. * Seed dispersal by wind, exploding pods, animal and water. * Germination explained. **Lesson Printables** * Animated PowerPoints for teaching with exit ticket quiz + 2 virtual investigations (x3) * Answer/mark scheme PowerPoint (x3) * Flip its (pupil writes questions to given answers) (x3) * Anticipation Guides(combined starter and plenary) (x3) * Foldables (students use to make their own notes) (x4) * Cut-and-stick activities pupil uses to make their own notes) (x4) * Worksheets to support the PowerPoint (x 5) * Fact sheet (x3) * Homework (x6) * Fact share worksheet (x3) * 12 Taboo cards (x3) * Pupil progress self-assessment checklist (3) * Exit Ticket * Suggested lesson plan showing choices possible between resources (x5) **For more high quality resources visit:** [Elf Off the Shelf Resources](https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/penyrheol1)
