KS2 Science PowerPoint Lesson and worksheets on water transport in plants. This is the third lesson in a series of Year 3 Science lessons on Plants. Corresponds to the Year 3 Science statutory requirements: investigate the way in which water is transported within plants. 18 pages including the front cover and Hoppy Times terms and conditions. In this lesson, students learn the meaning of the plant water transport system; learn to explain how water travels through the xylem tubes of a plant in the process called capillary action; predict and discuss why water is important to each part of a plant; they are also encouraged to make up a dance to explain how the water transport in plants works. Resources needed for the lesson: PowerPoint (included); differentiated worksheets (1 per student); celery stalks cut into smaller pieces for observation of xylem. Independent worksheets included (differentiated 3 ways). The PowerPoint text is editable, making it easier to customise and tailor to the needs of your class. I will also be uploading a Capillary Action investigation to go as an extension to this lesson. Please check back soon. HoppyTimes

Complete No-Prep lesson with exam questions, tasks and answers on Competition in Plants and Animals for AQA GCSE (9-1) Science / Biology. As a Secondary Science teacher and Deputy Headteacher for many years I make high quality no-prep lessons so busy teachers can teach outstanding lessons without spending hours planning. This high quality lesson includes explanations, different types of in-lesson assessment (all with answers) and unique exam questions. The lesson goes into a lot of depth and takes learners on a journey that builds up their understanding step by step. The preview video shows a representative sample of slides from the resource so that you get a good idea of what it includes before you buy. What’s Included: • Starter / Do Now Activity (with answers) • Explanation slides in “chunked” sections. • Multiple questions in different question styles and difficulties - no need for worksheets. Each “chunked” explanation section includes a set of “learning check / quick questions” followed by a set of in-depth questions on the learning from that “chunk” of the lesson. All questions have answers. • Exam-style questions on the whole lesson at the end of the lesson- these are unique, based on real exam questions but not just copied from exam boards. • Answers for all questions • All easily editable to adapt to your teaching or to use in existing lessons. • Slightly humorous, at points, if you like that sort of thing. Learning objectives: Describe why organisms have to compete for resources. Describe what factors organisms compete for. Suggest what factors organisms are competing for in specific situations. The lesson was written for AQA GCSE Science / Biology but is very likely to be applicable to other exam specifications and to KS3.

Students will learn about different plant parts and their functions, as well as about seeds and their different dispersal methods. They will learn what a plant needs in order to grow, and how to test the effects of food, light and warmth on plant growth.
