6. Procedures/Methods-
|
|
A. Introduction-
1.Discuss what is photosynthesis
2.Discuss the important parts of photosynthesis(chloroplasts, chlorophyll,
sun, light, etc.)
3.Discuss the significance of each part |
| |
|
|
B. Development-
1.Cover the leaves of one of the plants with Vaseline
2. Deprive one of the plants of the sunlight offered by the positioned
lamp
3. Deprive another plant of water
4. Leave the other plant alone |

|
C. Practice-
| Observe plant's progression for two weeks |
| |
|
|
D. Independent Practice-
1. Students will measure growth of plants
2. Students will note any difference they see
|
| |
|
|
E. Accommodations (Differentiated Instruction)-

2. Read books and watch a video on photosynthesis
3.Review PowerPoint and take notes |
| |
|
|
F. Checking for understanding-
1. 5 question quiz
2. Create a "how-to" assessment that relates to photosynthesis
|
| |
|
|
G. Closure-
1. Students will report their hypothesis of the plants and record
their conclusions
2. Record reflections |
