• SC.4.L.16.1 - Identify processes of sexual reproduction in flowering plants, including pollination, fertilization (seed production), seed dispersal, and germination. (Assessed as SC.3.L.14.1.)
• SC.3.L.14.1 - Describe structures in plants and their roles in food production, support, water and nutrient transport, and
reproduction.
Sexual Reproduction in Flowering Plants
Schoolyard Field Study: Observing a Wild Flower
Materials: A partner, plastic knife, hand lens, paper towel, wild flower (weed) Procedures:• Pick a small plant to observe with a partner.• Dig it out of the ground carefully and shake off the dirt.• Draw your plant and label the parts.• Use a hand lens to observe each part and sketch
observations.• Use sensory words to describe the your plant.• Be ready to share with the class.
Purpose of a Flower
Are Flowers More Than Just Pretty?
Flower Power• Essential Question: What are the parts of a
flower and the function of each part?• Learning Goals: Observe and identify flower parts. Reconstruct a flower model. Recognize the function of a flower, identifying the processes of reproduction including pollination, fertilization, seed dispersal, and germination.
The Parts of a FlowerWhat are the three main parts of flowers?
• petals• stamens• pistil
The Parts of a Flower• Sepals protect the bud
until it opens.• Petals attract insects.• Stamens make pollen.• Pistil contain the ovary
which contains the ovules (eggs).
• When fertilized, ovules grow into fruits which contain seed.
Flowering Plant Reproduction
• Pistil• Ovary• Egg• Stamen
• Pollen• Sperm• Pollination• Fertilization
The Stamen:Male Reproductive Part of
a Flower
Anther: Pollen grains (sperm cells) grow in the anther.
Filament:This holds the anther.
The Pistil:Female Reproductive
Parts of a Flower
StigmaStyleOvary (carpel)Eggs(ovules)
Stories Must Include:• Common & scientific name• Description of the flower• Explanation of the role of the
flower in the life cycle of the plant
• Use or value of the plant
Writing Assessment Rubric:• Accuracy of information• Creativity• Use of vivid vocabulary• Description of flower• Plant’s use or value
Flower Power WritingWhy Do Plants Make Flowers?
Pollination is the act of transferring pollen grains from the male anther of the stamen to the female stigma.
Pollen lands on a female pistil, sperm cells move down to the ovary, fertilizing the egg cells.
Fertilization combines DNA. The result is a seed with a tiny plant inside. The ovary grows into a fruit to protect the seeds.
What is Pollination?
Gizmos: Flower Pollination
Pollinators Animals, wind, and water can all
help in the transfer of pollen. We call animals or insects that
transfer pollen from plant to plant "pollinators ".
The flower type, shape, color, odor, nectar, and structure vary by the type of pollinator that visits them.
Wind Pollination
Some flowers, such as grasses, do not have brightly colored petals and nectar to attract insects. These flowers are pollinated by the wind.
Flowering plants use:
• the wind• insects • bats • birds• mammals
to transfer pollen from the stamen (male) part of the flower to the stigma (female) part of the flower.
Check Point • What is pollination?• How do flowering plants depend on other
living things in order to reproduce?• Why are young plants like but not identical to
their parents?
• SC.4.L.16.1 - Identify processes of sexual reproduction in flowering plants, including pollination, fertilization (seed production), seed dispersal, and germination. (Assessed as SC.3.L.14.1. “Fair Game”) AA
• SC.4.L.16.4 - Compare and contrast the major stages in the life cycles of Florida plants and animals, such as those that undergo incomplete and complete metamorphosis, and flowering and nonflowering seed-bearing plants. AA

Gone to Seed
Three main parts:1. seed coat - a covering with two roles: - Protects new plant called embyro
- Guards stored food called endosperm.2. endosperm – stored food3. embryo – The new plant with structures called
seed leaves or cotyledons.
Observing Seeds
Senses & Hand Lens• Sight - Looks• Touch - Feels• Hearing – Sounds
when dropped• Odor – Smells Qualitative Observations
Measurement Tools• Ruler• Tape measure• Balance• Gram mass pieces
Quantitative Observations
Observing a Seed 1. Observe the outside of a dry bean seed with a hand
lens. Draw it and write down four or more properties including length and width.
2. Get a wet bean seed to observe. Draw it and write down four or more properties including length and width.
3. Why is the wet seed larger?4. Split it open and observe its parts. Draw and label its
inside including the seed coat, cotyledon, and embryo.

How do seeds get dispersed from a plant into the ground?
• Some seeds are hidden in the ground by animals such as squirrels as a winter store.
• Some seeds have hooks on them and cling to fur or clothes.
How do birds and animals help seed dispersal?
Birds and animals eat the fruits and excrete the seeds away from the parent plant.
Ways Seeds are Carried Away from a Plant
• Animal-carried • Animal-consumed• Water-borne• Wind-borne• Propelled
Seed Germination
• Water• Oxygen• Proper temperature• Some require proper light
What do seeds need to sprout?
Seed Germination
What are the variables that affect germination?
Test your ideas on the Gizmo: Germination. www.explorelearning.com
What did we learn?• Water• Proper temperature• Some require proper light • Oxygen
Holds seeds inside of the flower which lie dormant, waiting to be
planted in the ground.
Seeds are made in their cone or spores instead of the flower.
Flowering Plants
Non-Flowering Plants
Where are seeds found in flowering and non flowering plants?
Life Cycle of Flowering Plants
• Reproduction• Seed• Seedling• Adult Plant• Flowers/Fruit• Seed Dispersal• Germination
Reproduction in Non-Flowering Plants
• Some plant produce spores.
• Some plants produce cones that contain seeds.
Life Cycle of Flowering and Non-Flowering Plants
Life Cycle of a Plant
Seeds are scattered by planting, wind, water, and animals.
When the small plant inside begins to grow, the seed germinates.
The young plant that grows from a seed is the seedling.
Remember…
Let’s Review!1. What do all living things need to live and
grow? food, water and air2. Can you name the parts of a plant? roots, stem, leaves and flower3. What do plants need to grow? sunlight, air, water and nutrients or minerals from the soil
4. What do the roots do for a plant?
5. What does the stem do for a plant?
The stem holds up the plant and moves water and nutrients through it.
The roots hold a plant in place and takes in water and nutrients from the soil.
6. Why does a plant need leaves?Leaves use sunlight, air, water, and nutrients to make food for the plant.
Flowers make fruits that hold seeds. These seeds will make new plants.
7. What do flowers do for plants?
8. How can seeds be scattered?By planting, animals, water, and wind.
