What educators are saying
Great resources for students to investigate photosynthesis and cellular respiration in plants. Students were actively engaged in the activities and made authentic connections to how matter is cycled through plants.
Great resource to pick and choose to fit my needs. Using it to build skills and offer extra practice for our students.

Description
SAVE MORE THAN 40% OFF LIST PRICES! This bundle includes every resource you'll need to teach photosynthesis, cellular respiration, and the flow of energy between organisms in an ecosystem.
All of the work has been done for you - from start to finish!
This bundle is a COMPLETE AND COMPREHENSIVE UNIT, including:
✅ 3 Reading Passages with Worksheets
✅ Cell Energy Stations Activity
✅ Photosynthesis Laboratory
✅ Hands-On Cellular Respiration Activity
✅ Cell Energy Review Sorting Activity (free bonus!)
✅ Assessment (both print and Google Forms versions)
The Unit Progress as Follows:
- INTRODUCE the topic by having students read separate passages about photosynthesis, cellular respiration, and the relationship between these processes. Students complete a worksheet for each reading.
- ENGAGE students with a no prep stations activity. Each of the 12 stations reviews, reinforces, or gives extra interesting information about one topic related to cell energy. Students answer questions on a worksheet as they move through the stations, including CER, flow charts, diagrams, reading comprehension questions, etc.
- GET HANDS-ON! This unit includes two labs, one for photosynthesis and one for cellular respiration. During the photosynthesis lab, students will investigate how light, carbon dioxide, and temperature affect the rate of photosynthesis. During the cellular respiration lab, students blow up a balloon using respiration - kids LOVE this one!
- ASSESS learning with a final text. Two versions are included for easy differentiation.
Supplies Required for this Unit:
- For the Photosynthesis Lab: 10mL syringe (your local pharmacy may donate), spinach, straws, clear cups/beakers, baking soda, lamp or clamp light, dish soap, thermometer
- For the Hands-On Respiration Activity: balloon, yeast, sugar, funnel, measuring spoons
- All Other Activities: Paper copies only
Covers the Following NGSS Standards:
- MS-LS1-6: Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence for the role of photosynthesis in the cycling of matter and flow of energy into and out of organisms.
Teacher Notes:
- Answer keys are always included.
- Please note: these resources are not editable.
- All included resources, except for the two hands-on labs, include digital Google options to assign.

NGSSMS-LS2-3
Develop a model to describe the cycling of matter and flow of energy among living and nonliving parts of an ecosystem. Emphasis is on describing the conservation of matter and flow of energy into and out of various ecosystems, and on defining the boundaries of the system. Assessment does not include the use of chemical reactions to describe the processes.
NGSSMS-LS1-6
Construct a scientific explanation based on evidence for the role of photosynthesis in the cycling of matter and flow of energy into and out of organisms. Emphasis is on tracing movement of matter and flow of energy. Assessment does not include the biochemical mechanisms of photosynthesis.
