    This KS2 science lesson plan focuses on teaching students about flowers. The objectives are for students to understand that flowers produce seeds, be able to dissect and name flower parts, know that some flowers are edible, and learn that flowers have male and female organs. The lesson involves showing students diagrams of flowers, having them examine real flowers to identify parts like stamens and carpels, and labeling a flower diagram. It links the role of flowers to the plant life cycle and seed dispersal. For homework, students are asked to observe plants and flowers and bring examples or photos to class.

    KS2 SCIENCE CURRICULUM


    SC2: 3d To know about the parts of the flower (for example, stigma, stamen, petal, sepal) and their role in the life cycle of flowering plants, including pollination, seed formation, seed dispersal and germination.

    EVERY CHILD MATTERS


    Enjoy and achieve Make a positive contribution Eco-Schools topics: School grounds

    OTHER CURRICULUM LINKS


    PSHCE: 5a To take responsibility (for example, for planning and looking after the school environment) Art & Design: 4a To use visual and tactile elements, including colour, pattern and texture, line and tone, shape, form and space, and how these elements can be combined and organised for different purposes

    WHAT TO DO
    Starter Bring in a variety of flowers. What are flowers used for in everyday life? For example, celebration, offerings etc. In talk partners, can you recap on the parts of a flower and the function of the various parts? Listen for accurate vocabulary and encourage. Main teaching phase 1. Show children a detailed diagram of a flower and provide background information about parts of the plant including the following: All flowers have male and female parts The female part is called the carpel The male part is called the stamen The flower helps the plant to reproduce 2. Distribute flowers one between two. Tell children to look carefully at the flower with your partner. What does it smell like? What can you see? Can you identify the male and female parts? 3. Show children an enlarged diagram of the carpel (page 3). Point out the stigma, style and ovary. Can they identify these female parts in their own flower? 4. Show children an enlarged diagram of the carpel (page 3). Point out the anther, filament and pollen. Can they identify these male parts of the flower? 5. Model draw a detailed diagram of the flower labelling the male and female parts. Show different ways of shading to give picture texture, including varying the light and dark tones. 6. Children to work on own and evaluate in pairs at end of session. For less able children provide a template or a word bank to support them when labelling.

    Extension Find out what each part of the flower, e.g. the stigma is used for. Plenary Link the role of the flower with the plant life cycle. Ask how are the seeds dispersed. Discuss answers. How do the different parts of the flower promote reproduction? Flower is bright and colourful to attract insects. Stigma is sticky, so that the pollen from the insect stays on the ovary etc. Create a class rap, e.g. Here is the flower that opens wide, To attract the insects to go inside, Here is the...

    HOMEWORK
    Ask the children to look for examples of plants/ flowers/leaves/fruits to bring in and share with class or take digital photographs of the flowers. Further work In ICT, these pictures could be collaborated into a multimedia presentation.
