This interactive lesson helps students to learn the stages of growth in the life cycle of plants. In activity 1, students will learn the parts of a common flowering plant by dragging labels into place in order to fill in a diagram. This will lead to an activity where various stages of a plant life cycle are identified through a picture dragging exercise.

Interactive whiteboard activity 2 helps students to see how all living things have similar life cycles.

The parts highlighted are the roots, stems, leaves, and seeds. The function of each plant part is also described when the part is highlighted. For example, when a student clicks on the word “Root” at the top of the page, all of these plants roots are shown under the ground with arrows pointing to them. Across the top of the page “Roots are the part of the plant that brings nutrients from the soil to the plant” is printed.
