Spellings Learning Objective; Understand the process of what pollination is in plants Level 5 Explain the two types of pollination and how the different types affect the plant produced Level 4 Describe the different methods of pollination and recall the two types of pollination Level 3 Recall what pollination is Plant reproduction What do these have in common? Collective memory In your groups you will take it in turns to look at a diagram for 15 seconds. You will then have to return to your tables to draw/write as much as you can remember. The next person will then have a go and so on. Whose group will be the most similar? How do we get new plants? Have a look at the colour match activity. See if you can match the correct boxes up. Cut and stick/ Colour Pollination Pollen goes from the anther to the stigma of the same plant Happens because of wind, insects, birds or water Cross pollination The transfer of pollen from the anther to the sticky stigma Self pollination Pollen goes from 1 plant to another of the same type Results in a genetically weaker plant Results in stronger plants Cut and stick/ Colour Pollination Pollen goes from the anther to the stigma of the same plant Happens because of wind, insects, birds or water Cross pollination The transfer of pollen from the anther to the sticky stigma Self pollination Pollen goes from 1 plant to another of the same type Results in a genetically weaker plant Results in stronger plants I have no idea how to get to a stigma!! How do you think the pollen finds its way to a stigma? Role Play Task In small groups you have each been given a card. Your card describes one way in which seeds travel. Each group has a different card. It is your task to produce a very small role play to describe to your classmates the way in which seeds spread out on your card. You can use actions, words, storylines and examples to help everyone understand. In small groups you have each been given a card. Your card describes one way in which seeds travel.

Seed dispersal-summary sheet For pollination to occur, the pollen from a plant needs to make its way from the anther of 1 plant to the stigma of another (or of the same plant in the case of self- pollination). This can happen by different methods WindBurstingShakers Catching a liftAnimal foodDrop and rollWater Group assessment Assess the group work of someone in your role play group. Write feedback in the form of 2 x www and 1 x ebi. Think about how much they contributed, did they let other people join in, did they listen to suggestions, did they discuss the work Learning Objective; Understand the processes of fertilisation and germination of plants Level 5 Explain how a new plant grows including detail about fertilisation germination and the need for the right conditions Level 4 Describe the processes involved in fertilisation and germination Level 3 Recall what fertilisation and germination are Growing plants So now you know the full story!!
