This ZOOMSci video segment teaches you how to germinate seeds in a plastic bag and helps you understand some of the factors that influence the germination process. - - View the video called From Seed to Flower. This video segment shows various phases of the process of growth using time-lapse photography. Footage from NOVA: "The Shape of Things. - - View Inside a Seed JPEG image that illustrates the important parts of a seed: the seed coat, the endosperm, and the embryo's primary root, cotyledon, and embryonic leaves.

10. Squid Structure and Function

11. RI GSEs in Science K-4 Assessment Targets Students demonstrate understanding of structure and function and survival requirements by 4a Identifying and explaining how the physical structure/characteristic of an organism allows it to survive and defend itself. 4b Analyzing the structures needed for survival of populations of plants and animals in a particular habitat/environment.

12. Identify a question that leads to inquiry.

13. The other day, I went to an Italian restaurant and I ordered calamari. Calamari is another name for squid. I want to know what structures of the squid I’m eating. And, what structures help the squid to survive? Engaging Scenario

14. Colossal Squid Dissection short film from the Discovery Channel http://exn.ca/video/?video=exn20030529 -squid.asx http://exn.ca/video/?video=exn20030529 -squid.asx

15. My Focus Question

16. Class Focus Question What are a squid’s physical structures and their functions? What are a squid’s physical structures and their functions? How do they help them survive? How do they help them survive?

17. Prediction 1.Draw and label the structures of a squid you know. 2.Explain the functions of each structure you know.

33. Squid Printing A B C

34. Gyotaku Gyotaku (gyo = fish, taku = rubbing) Invented in the early 1800's in Japan by the fishermen to record their catch. http://www.youtube. com/watch?v=xG_- 0Xd2x2E&NR=1 video of http://www.youtube. com/watch?v=xG_- 0Xd2x2E&NR=1 http://www.youtube. com/watch?v=xG_- 0Xd2x2E&NR=1 http://www.youtube. com/watch?v=xG_- 0Xd2x2E&NR=1

35. Instructional Objective Learners will be able to follow a procedure for making a print using a real squid Task Analysis Major Skill: To follow procedures for printing an image of a real squid Sub Skills: 1.Laying squid on newspaper. 2.Fan out fins, arms and tentacles. 3.Applying paint to the squid. 4.Place the paper over the painted squid. 5.Pressing gently. 6.Peeling back the paper slowly. 7.Hanging print to dry. 8.Observing external structures and examining print for smudges and missing ink.

36. Instructional Sequence for Teaching Procedural Knowledge 1. Clarify goals, provide background information, and establish set. 2. Demonstrate skill. 3. Provide guided practice. 4. Check for understanding and provide feedback. 5. Provide extended practice and transfer.

37. Three Step Modeling for Teaching Procedural Knowledge Step 1: Teacher models the step-by-step procedure. Step 2: Have a student model the procedure. Guide the student through the procedure. Step 3: Have a second student verbally explain the steps.
