Lesson Content
What Standards (national
or state) relate to this
lesson?
(You should include ALL
applicable standards. Rarely
do teachers use just one:
theyd never get through
them all.)
Objectives- What are you
teaching?
(Student-centered: What will
students know and be able to
do after this lesson? Include
the ABCDs of objectives:
action, behavior, condition,
and degree of mastery, i.e.,
"C: Given a sentence written
in the past or present tense,
A: the student B: will be able
to re-write the sentence in
future tense D: with no errors
in tense or tense contradiction
(i.e., I will see her
yesterday.)."
Note: Degree of mastery does
not need to be a percentage.)
Evaluation Plan- How will

SC.3.L.14.1: Describe structures in plants and their roles in food production, support, water and
nutrient transport, and reproduction (CPALMS)
SC.3.L.14.2: Investigate and describe how plants respond to stimuli (heat, light, gravity), such as the
way plant stems grow toward light and their roots grow downward in response to gravity (CPALMS)

Students will understand how different forces affect plant growth and review different
parts of plants.

Formative: I will be asking plenty of questions, and we will also be walking around the

Explain: Students will be taken written notes of what they see and
what they think.
Extend: Students will have to think of a previous science experiment
that failed.
Evaluation: Students will turn in the piece of paper with their notes
and ideas.

If applicable, how does this lesson connect to the interests and cultural
backgrounds of your students?
Students will get to see time-lapsed photos which is something that should
interest students, while also given plenty of time to express their own ideas.

Differentiationbased on
the needs of your students
how will you take
individual and group
learning differences into
account.

I will allow time for students to partner talk and whole group talk.

Relevant Psychological
Theories and research
taken in consideration
when planning this lesson

I want to take into account scaffolding, which is something we discussed in my learn

and development class a lot last semester. I want my questions to aid my students
learning processes.
