1. Warm up
Find your Seat
Clear your desk except for your Journal and something to write with.
You will be taking a unit pre-assessment
Notes:
You have learned about plants producing their own
food during elementary school. This engagement exercise
is intended to regenerate prior knowledge and not to
introduce new concepts.

2. Objective and goals 8/29/16 To go over Voc. word of the week.
To learn the new word of the week.
To Pre-assess what we already know about photosynthsis
To recognize that radiant energy from the Sun transforms into chemical energy through the process of photosynthesis.

3. Vocabulary word of the week
Design-
A plan or drawing produced to show the look and function or workings of a building, garment, cell, or other object before it is built/made or as is.
"he has just unveiled his design for the new museum"
synonyms: plan, blueprint, drawing, sketch, outline, map, plot, diagram, draft, representation, scheme, model
When your teacher says go you will.. In table groups discuss how you think we design in science class

4. What do all these things have in common?

5. What do all these things have in common?
All photos are of plants.
All the plants have green leaves.
Plants make their own food.
Plants are also known as producers
They need water to grow
They have roots
They need sunlight..

8. Photosynthesis means building with Light
‘synthesis’ = BUILD
‘photo’ = LIGHT
Photosynthesis means building with Light
carbon dioxide
CO2
water
H2O +
glucose
C6H12O6
oxygen O2 +
chlorophyll
 Green plants can make their own food from ……..… and ………..…
 using energy in the form of ………………….
 which is absorbed by chlorophyll in the ………………...
 The end products of photosynthesis are ………. and ………….

9. glucose The glucose is very useful for the plant
Can be converted to fructose for the fruit
Can be used in respiration to release energy
Can be converted into fats and oils for the seeds
glucose
Can be joined together to make cellulose for the cell walls
can be joined together to make starch for storage
Can be combined with nutrients from the soil to make proteins for the new growth

16. Objective and goals 8/24/16
The teacher will introduce students to carbon dioxide and water as the reactants in photosynthesis.
2.Students will also learn that glucose and oxygen are the products of the reaction.

17. Small Group Think-Pair-Share- write in journal
What is the source of the reactant, CO2 in photosynthesis? 2. What is the source of the reactant, H2O in photosynthesis?
3. What new molecule forms as a product during photosynthesis?
4. Based upon the models used in this activity, what would be a reasonable definition of a molecule?

18. Small Group Check for Understanding
Think-Pair-Share
1. What is the source of the reactant, CO2 in photosynthesis? Atmosphere
2. What is the source of the reactant, H2O in photosynthesis? Water in the soil
3. What new molecule forms as a product during photosynthesis? Glucose (sugar)
4. Based upon the models used in this activity, what would be a reasonable definition of a molecule?
The term molecule describes two or more atoms joined together.

19. Reminders Goal check: thumbs up or down.
EVERYDAY you MUST have your composition books, Colors, glue and scissors.
Study your study stack for 10 min a day. Posted on Google classroom as well. Quiz soon!

20. Warm up/Lab day
Students will prepare for the day by Reviewing notes and voc. gathering materials (handouts, journal, scissors, glue, pencil)
Glue “what if?” in journal

21. Objective and goals 9/1/16 students will know the following:
the general components of photosynthesis
the process is unique to plants and plant-like organisms
why the process is important to life on Earth
the relationship between matter and energy during photosynthesis

22. Small Group
In discussion groups -predict what would happen to them if photosynthesis stops tomorrow.
Press past the obvious answer of “I would die.”
Each group will have one question. Consider the impact of the lack of photosynthesis
How would my home be impacted if photosynthesis stops tomorrow?
How would the way I dress be impacted if photosynthesis stops tomorrow?
How would the cost of my food change if photosynthesis stops tomorrow?
How would my health be impacted if photosynthesis stops tomorrow?

23. Independent Practice photosynthesis foldable
(a hard copy is on each desk for students to copy.. You must color and then glue in your own journal)

24. Reminders Goal check: thumbs up or down.
you MUST have your composition books everyday

25. Warm up
Students will work in pairs to put the Photosynthesis match cards in order
Then draw a t chart in your journal. After Mrs. Evans checks write it down in your Journal

26. Objective and goals 8/26/16 Students will know the following:
the general components of photosynthesis
