Name of Course: Life Science Instructor: Cody Miller Number of Students: 20-25

G.1.2 To think critically about the damaging effects of pesticides on angiosperms. || O.1.2 Students will know the categories that various angiosperms and gymnosperms fall into. || · 6.L.1.2. Students are able to explain the importance and scientific use of a classification system. || · Reproduction and heredity · Diversity and adaptations of organisms. || · Worksheet || · Writing tool ||
 * Title of Unit || Seed Bearing Plants ||
 * Title of lesson plan || Gymnosperms Vs. Angiosperms ||
 * Anticipated instructional time || one 50 minute class period ||
 * Enduring understandings || After completion of this lesson, students will be able to identify the difference between gymnosperms and angiosperms. Students will also be able to identify to parts of a flower. ||
 * Rational || The rational behind this lesson is to give students the basic skills need in identifying seed bearing plants. Seed bearing plants are the basics in biology. It is important that students have a firm grasp on angiosperms and gymnosperms so that they can understand more complex areas in biology. ||
 * Goals of the lesson || G.1.1 To develop an appreciation for what defines an angiosperm and gymnosperm.
 * Objectives || O.1.1 Students will understand the difference between angiosperms and gymnosperms.
 * SD K-12 Standards || · 7.L.1.4. Students are able to describe and identify the structure of vascular and non-vascular plants.
 * Professional Organization Standards || · Structure and function in living systems
 * Guided practice/formative assessment || Verbal questions ||
 * Assessment/Homework || Worksheet and activity ||
 * Instructor Materials || · Station pictures
 * participant materials || · Textbook

__Lesson script:__ 1.) Ask students who read the assigned reading. 2.) Ask students “what are the two seed bearing plants” 3.) Ask students what is the difference between angiosperms and gymnosperms. Hint about reproduction. 4.) What is the means of transportation for gymnosperms seed dispersal? Angiosperms seed dispersal? 5.) What are the two types of angiosperms? 6.) What are some things angiosperms and gymnosperms are used for today? 7.) Set up stations and explain to students that they will travel from station to station answering questions about the picture at each station.  8.) Once students visit each station, students will complete the diagram of the flower and answer the critical thinking question. 9.) Once all students have completed the assignment go over the correct answers and have the students turn in the assignment.
