Plants are Perfect!


Spring! What teacher doesn't love it? Days are getting warmer, flowers are blooming, we're getting closer to summer break....I especially love this time of year for teaching science. Get the kids outside and be environmentalists and biologists. I will admit, life cycles are my favorite units to teach. Here are some great interactive websites for teaching plant parts and plant life cycles.

  1. BBC- Bitesize interactives- Parts of a Flower
  2. University of Illinois- Trees are Terrific
  3. WI.gov Environmental Education- Eek! Dichotomous Tree Key
  4. For Interactive Whiteboards- Life Cycle of Plants
