Lesson overview
This free science lesson for KS2 classes will explore different plants and how they are adapted to suit their environment. RHS Education Officers, Ruth and Janet, will lead your pupils on an exciting journey of discovery by getting up close to the plants in two completely different environments: alpine and sub-tropical. Through activities, interviews and role play we’ll investigate how the plants have adapted to these extreme environments and how that helps them survive and evolve.
Download this Imagination Island activity sheet and hand out to your pupils following the Tes Live lesson with RHS (www.tes.com/live-lessons/RHS )
Remind your pupils that they have already found out some of the features of Alpine and sub-tropical plants.
Ask them to consider leaves (size/colour shape), flowers, stems and roots when they are creating their plants. You may wish to extend this to fruits and berries. Encourage your pupils to be as intuitive as possible in their designs and describe the way that the plant will survive on the island.
We’d love to see their work by tagging us @teslivelessons @rhslearning using #imaginationisland. Plase check there are no pupils visible in the images.
Questions for scaffolding:
Do you think the stem would be tall, short, thick or thin on a windy island?
What would the roots look like growing in thin, stony soil?
It’s sunny but windy. What would be the best leaf: size and shape; texture; colour?
Small insects have blown in on the breeze. What shape of flower can they pollinate? What colour should the flowers be?
Download this free worksheet and distribute to your pupils ahead of joining the science Live Lesson with RHS. The worksheet will help your class navigate through the alpine plants featured in the lesson and match up features of the plants to the reason for the adaptation.
Please download the activity sheet and distribute it to your pupils before the lesson begins. It contains activities for them to work on during the lesson, including a short paragraph for them to edit during activity 2. You can also ask them to have a piece of their own writing ready to edit during this activity.
