Lesson Title: Plant Parts
Objectives: 1. Student will know the basic plant parts. 2. Students will present this knowledge on Power Point. 3. Students will use technology to complete assignment.
CDE Science: 3. Adaptations in physical structure or behavior may improve an organism's chance for survival. As a basis for understanding this concept: 3a. Students know plants and animals have structures that serve different functions in growth, survival, and reproduction. 3c. Students know living things cause changes in the environment in which they live: some of these changes are detrimental to the organism or other organisms, and some are beneficial.
CDE Language Arts: Students write clear and coherent sentences and paragraphs that develop a central idea. Their writing shows they consider the audience and purpose. Students progress through the stages of the writing process (e.g., prewriting, drafting, revising,
editing successive versions). Organization and Focus 1.1 Create a single paragraph: 1a. Develop a topic sentence. 1b. Include simple supporting facts and details.
NETS: #4: Use general purpose productivity tools and peripherals to support personal productivity, remediate skill deficits, and facilitate learning throughout the curriculum. #5: Use technology tools (e.g., multimedia authoring, presentation, Web tools, digital cameras, scanners) for individual and collaborative writing, communication, and publishing activities to create knowledge products for audiences inside and outside the classroom.
