Resource Support Notes:
Zip is a bee who likes to travel around, finding out about things. He
really knows his stuff when it comes to plants and his favourite drink -
Nectar.
On the contents page (which looks like a large flower), each
petal takes you to a different part of the activity.
Parts of the
plant - Looks at the flower, roots and leaves. Growth of a
plant - Looks at the plant growth cycle. Use the stop and play buttons
to focus on the text with the pupils. Pollination - What
pollen looks like and how flowers create new plants (basic) Links to
plant web sites - A range of sites that all have plant related things
on them. Some are designed for revision for SAT's others are for printable
worksheets. Activities - Simple activities that could be
done in the home by the children themselves. Zip's Challenge
- The answers to this quiz are all within the activity somewhere. This can be a
useful quick revision task, which can make the student think about more than
just the obvious answers. It is useful to get the children to note that some
questions have more than one answer and all must be selected before it is deemed
correct.
This activity will only take most pupils 15 mins to cover, but
is designed to be used as either an introductory activity or revision activity.
It covers main points for SAT revision. Some of the linked web pages provide
further scope for this topic.
