This lesson is compatible with the Second Grade Next Generation Science Standard* 2-LS2-1 which states that the student should “[p]lan and conduct an investigation to determine if plants need sunlight and water to grow, test one variable at a time.”
This Second Grade Life Science Plant Growth lesson is a great way to get your students to learn how to record scientific data and also appreciate where food comes from. The worksheets introduce the students to the concept of photosynthesis. The hands-on project examines photosynthesis even further by testing whether or not plants need water and sunlight to survive.
This lesson is compatible with the 2nd Grade Next Generation Science Standards* 2-LS2-2 and 2-LS4-1, which states that the student will “[d]evelop a simple model that mimics the function of an animal in dispersing seeds or pollinating plants.”
The student will also “[m]ake observations of plants and animals to compare the diversity of life in different habitats.”
This lesson teaches students about biodiversity and adaptations through the study of different types of plant seeds. It begins with an introduction to seeds through a book study, it then discusses the ecology of seeds and examines the variety of seed dispersal methods.
For the first part of the project, students will sort a collection of real seeds and pictures of seeds based on their dispersal methods. They will then move on to complete an Internet study on the diversity and ecology of 9 different types of seeds.
The next part of the hands-on project is all about seed model making. The students will make their own parachutes, helicopters, poppers, as well as examine Velcro up close to see how it is similar to some seeds.
The lesson ends in an assessment and review of the objectives.
These lessons can be used in a general education or special education classroom, in a home school setting, or as an enrichment experience.
