Audience: Year 6 students
Objective: From this learning object, students will be able to learn how plants make food. They will learn that water, light energy and carbon dioxide are needed for photosynthesis and sugar and oxygen are the products of photosynthesis.
The graphic on the first slide provides a pictorial representation of the process of photosynthesis. It shows:
-the condition necessary for photosynthesis – sunlight, water, chlorophyll and carbon dioxide
-the products of photosynthesis – sugar and oxygen.
Each word on the graphic is linked to a slide which explains its part in the process of photosynthesis.
To assess their own learning, a quiz in the form of a crossword puzzle is created.
For the final project, a podcast will be created, to provide students with an overview on the process of photosynthesis.
