BIOLOGY LESSON PLAN (2021-22)

Chapter 1 – Transport in plants


3
Std :8 Date: 09.2022 to 24.06.2022
V88VIIVII
VIII

Learning Objectives:

The students will be able to

*recognize the importance of transportation in plants

*understand the conducting or transporting tissues.

*Conduct an investigation to find out how water moves through a plant

*describe the functions of the xylem tissues

*identify different tissues and organs in plants and state their functions

* Critically evaluate the structure of root system and state their function.

Introduction of topic:

Students will be questioned based on their prior knowledge on the picture

 Name the three main plant organs?

 Identify what each transport in plants

 Explain how they are adapted to their function?

Further students will be shown the following video and will be asked to correlate with their
prior discussion

This will help students to understand the importance of learning this chapter and thus
encourage them to participate actively.

Pedagogical strategies:

Linguistic:

Students will be able explain about

1. Transport in plants
2. The conducting or transporting tissues
3. Water absorption by the roots
4. Transpiration
5. Importance of minerals

Spatial:
Logical:

To enhance the level of understanding of students they can be asked logical questions like,

1. Why do new cells are formed and also differentiate into specialized cells?

2. How is water and food transported in the plant?

3. Can you differentiate simple tissues and complex tissues?

4. How do the xylem tissues help in movement of water?

Moral and Practical value:

1. The student realizes the importance of plant tissues

2. Team work/ Unity is strength

Enrichment / Project:
Extend/Elaborate:
Annual rings vary in thickness due to environmental factors. What kinds of environmental factors
during the year might influence tree growth? Suppose that during a ten-year period rainfall in a region
increased each spring by ten percent. During the next ten-year period, rainfall decreased each spring by
ten percent in the same region. What effect do you think this weather pattern would have on the annual
rings of a 20-year old tree?
