1 T E A C H E R S N O T E S Focus: Students explore plants: their unique characteristics and what they need to grow, how they change as they grow, and how humans use them. Students will also learn that plants are important to the planet and that humans need to protect plants and their habitats. Learning Goals: Students will have opportunities to learn how to correctly use the terms life cycle, carbon dioxide, nutrient, photosynthesis, adaptation, algae, habitat, survive, tundra, germination, pollen, pollination, stamen, pistil, crop, energy, medicine, oxygen, survive, environment, pollute, protect that plants are living things and look different as they grow and change how plants survive and make their own food that each part of the plant helps it to live how plants are adapted to their environment how seeds are made and grow how animals and humans use plants how humans affect plants how humans can protect plants Discussion Prompts: What plants do you know and use every day? How do seeds become plants? How do plants adapt to their environment? How does this help them to survive? How do people use plants in all areas of their life? How are plants being harmed? How can people help to protect plants? Assessment Prompts: Do students demonstrate, in their discussions and answers to questions, understanding of the science vocabulary used in the cards for this unit? Are students able to carry out the skills of scientific inquiry, following activity safety procedure steps safely and accurately, making observations when appropriate? Assess students responses during discussions. - Do students understand that plants are living things and look different as they go through their life cycle? - Do they understand that all plants make food through photosynthesis? - Do they know that plants have special features that help them to adapt to their habitat? - Can students explain how humans use plants in many areas of their daily life? - Can students identify and explain how people make it hard for plants to survive? - Can students suggest ways to protect plants?

2 Focus: Students explore the plant life cycle and what plants need to live. Activity Description: A new screen called How Plants Change appears. The text answers the Think question. Students click on the continue button to see how four plants start out as seeds. By clicking the orange icon on this screen, students can click and drag the labels to the correct picture to test their knowledge in a timed task. The orange icon that leads to the next screen allows students to drag and drop labels of an apple tree life cycle into the correct order. Learning Goal: Students investigate how plants change and grow from a seed to a mature plant. Ask Students: What are the life-cycle stages of a plant? Assessment: Are students able to name correctly, and in the proper order, the life-cycle stages of a plant? Introduce students to the topic with the video that shows plants growing. Discuss the video and any comments or questions students may have. Activity Description: A new screen called How do plants make their own food? allows the students to click on each part of the plant to learn how it contributes to photosynthesis. Learning Goal: Students clarify their understanding of how each part of the plant helps in photosynthesis. (sunlight and carbon dioxide with water and nutrients from the soil helps the leaves to make food for the plant, stem, leaves and roots all have a role) Ask Students: How does the plant make its own food? Assessment: Are students able to name the role that each part of a plant plays in photosynthesis? Can they label and describe briefly what happens in each part of the plant? PCSP Interactive Science Teacher s Notes 2
3 Activity Description: Corresponding to Page 4 of this card, this screen includes the page 4 illustration with labels to be dropped into each section of the diagram Learning Goal: Students review the parts of the plant.

PCSP Interactive Science Teacher s Notes 3
4 Focus: Students explore how plants are different and alike and how they are adapted to their habitat. Activity Description: In the screen that appears, the student task highlights three plants and answers the Think question. The orange continue button leads students to a new screen about unusual food trapping plants. Learning Goal: Students extend their understanding of how plants are alike and different, and learn about plants that trap insects as an extra source of food. Ask Students: How are the stem, leaves, and fruit of various plants different? (Some leaves are smooth, spiky, very small, very large; some fruit are cones, edible fruit like oranges, apples, and berries; some stems are smooth, spiky, and hairy) Assessment: Are students able to compare two different plants from two different climates (leaves, stem, fruit) to highlight their similarities and differences? Introduce students to the topic with the video slide show of plants from all around the world. Discuss the video and any comments and questions the students may have. Activity Description: In the new screen that appears, students are introduced to the page Staying Alive, which highlights special features some plants have to protect themselves. This answers the Think question and allows students to click on each plant to learn about its unique survival feature. Learning Goals: Students deepen their knowledge of unique survival features of some plants (spiky leaves and spines, poisonous hairs and berries, thorns) Ask Students: How do plants protect themselves? What are some of the special features that plants have to stay safe? Assessment: Can students name some of the special features and describe how they protect the plant? Activity Description: In the new screen that appears, the Think question is answered and students can see the features of plants in both cold and warm climates. Students can click continue to learn how four unique plants survive their climates. The last orange icon allows the students to confirm their understanding of climate and special plant features with a matching game. Learning Goals: Students enhance their understanding of how special features are PCSP Interactive Science Teacher s Notes 4 continued next page
5 Activity Description: Students drag and drop the correct adaptation labels onto each plant. Students then click continue to learn about two additional Arctic plants with unique tundra adaptations. Learning Goal: Students will extend their learning and gather further examples of plants that have unique features to survive different climates. Ask Students: Can students choose one of the Arctic plants featured in this section and explain how it is adapted to the cold climate of the Arctic? Assessment: Have each student write a journal entry as a botanist explaining the special features of the plant found in the Arctic (words, pictures, labels may be used to share knowledge). continued from page 4 adaptations for survival from predators and the environment Ask Students: How do plants protect themselves? What are some of the special features that plants have to live in their climate/environment?
