The GlaSS-house grEEnhouse
3rd cycle of primary school LES
Objectives for the task
This LES presents various directed activities in order to initiate the students, through the living world to the use of measurement instruments as well as to laboratory work techniques.
Validations…
What was done…
1st time: October 2010… Fresh and new!
Upgrade of previous knowledge;
Essential needs of plants;
Initiation to measurement instruments (scale, graduated cylinder);
Initiation to a separation process: filtration;
Introduction of tropisms and photosynthesis;
Discovery of coloured pigments in plants.
Prerequisites:
Technical capsules about:
The scale;
the graduated cylinder;
filtration.
Context:
Presentation of the request for information.

Activity 2
The objective, to distinguish between:
Photosynthesis;
Respiration;
Evapo-perspiration.
Using examples, videos and demonstrations, show the students that plants feed themselves, breathe and perspire.
Activity 3: Tropisms
Distinguish three types of movement in plants:
Phototropism;
Hydrotropism;
Geotropism.
