    FOCUS / ARONGA

    FOCUS / ARONGA learning intentions:

    • We are FOCUSING on plant biology so as to develop a good understanding of plant systems and plant reproduction.
    • We are FOCUSING on flower in order to identify the female and male parts of the flower and their key functions.
    • We are FOCUSING on the photosynthesis and plant vascular system so that we learn how they work, and how to sketch their diagrams, to name and label the different parts involved.


    Success Criteria: (Students can...)

    • identify the different parts of a flower, especially the male and female parts
    • describe the main functions of the flower parts
    • explain the main functions performed by photosynthesis and the vascular system
    • use a diagram to clearly map out, label and/or illustrate the above plant biology


    Activities & Learning Tasks:

    1. Education Perfect task to learn more about the plant section of the living world; such as: How do plants grown? How different or similar are plants from animals??  How the plant systems work? And how they reproduce.
    2. (optional for early finishers) BrainPop focusing on plant biology topics.
