7. PROJECT PAPER DISTRIBUTION  Research paper that is argumentative in nature.  You are given approximately almost a month to finish.

8. TARGETS : MONDAY 6.L.1.1 : I can  1. tell what a flower is  2. Identify the major parts of the flower

9. TARGETS : TUESDAY 6.L.1.1 : I can  1. compare and contrast a stamen from a pistil.  2. tell what pollination is  3. examine the physical parts of the flower and be able to tell the functions of each part.

10. Targets : ES 6.L.1.1 Thursday  Compare and contrast sepal from a petal  Describe a pollen grain and tell the role of pollen grain in fertilization  Dissect a flower

11. Vocabulary : Monday flower  Flower is the reproductive structure of a plant where fertilization takes place  Sentence. The flower holds the parts of the plant that make seeds.  Your turn!

12. New Concept : Flower Parts and Structure  https://drive.google.com/a/wcpss.net/file/d/0ByVSK9pUdCiqVmk3UEhWeG thUVk/view https://drive.google.com/a/wcpss.net/file/d/0ByVSK9pUdCiqVmk3UEhWeG thUVk/view

13. Vocabulary Word : Tuesday STAMEN VS PISTIL  Stamen is male reproductive organ of a flower that produces pollen.  Sentence. The stamen is the organ inside the flower that makes pollen, tiny yellow particles the plant needs to reproduce

14. VOCABULARY : PISTIL  Pistil is the female reproductive organ of a flower that can be fertilized by pollen

15. NEW CONCEPT : POLLINATION  the transfer of pollen from the stamen (male) to the stigma (female)  Pollen can be transported from the stamen of one flower by other living organisms or the wind to the stigma of another flower. This is how they reproduce.

16. VOCABULARY WORD : THURSDAY PETAL VS. SEPAL  Petal - The parts of a flower that are often conspicuously colored.  Sepal - The outer parts of the flower (often green and leaf-like) that enclose a developing bud.

17. New Concept : Thursday  POLLEN is a yellow powder produced by the stamen of a flower; pollen fertilizes the pistil of another flower (related word: pollinate)  Anther is the part of a flower's stamen that contains the pollen ; in a flower, anthers produce pollen

18. FILAMENT : MALE  The filament supports the anther, which is where pollen develops.

20. New Concept : Ovary vs Ovule  Ovary is the female reproductive organ that produces eggs  Ovule is found inside the ovary ; otherwise called “small egg”

21. ESSENTIAL VOCABULARY FOR THE WEEK NOVEMBER 9-13, 2015  Petal Filament Ovule  Sepal Pollen Ovary  Stamen Pistil Anther
