Description

This is a complete and comprehensive plan that covers photosynthesis from notes to test and all the fun stuff in between. There are 17 items total and it is designed for student comprehension! There is also a planner included so you know which order you can use the items in.

This bundle includes both paperless and print options. The download includes a PDF with links.

Topics included:

✿ Light dependent reactions of photosynthesis - electron transport chain

✿ Light independent reactions - Calvin Cycle

✿ Connection between light and dark reactions

✿ Rate of photosynthesis: wavelengths, light, and temperature

✿ Rate of photosynthesis lab- carbon dioxide, oxygen (Elodea)

✿ Cells of the leaf and stomata

✿ Why Leaves change color

✿ Pigment Lab

Included in this bundled unit are:

1) Photosynthesis Notes: 20 slide PowerPoint presentation with student notes included.

2) Photosynthesis Quiz (I use this as an open note but it is editable and can be used however you wish).

3) Photosynthesis Practice: Great homework assignment!

4) Photosynthesis and Light

5) The Reactions of Photosynthesis: a 3 page summary of photosynthesis reading, coloring and labeling.

6) Green Solar Cells: All About Chloroplasts!

7) The Calvin Cycle: Practice all about the Calvin cycle!

8) The Elodea Took My Breath Away!: Lab that observes photosynthesis (or lack thereof) in certain conditions using Elodea.

Photosynthesis Closed Note Quiz- 18 questions (mostly matching)

9) Why Leaves Change Color (The Tale of the Masked Pigments): Reading article familiarizing students with different pigments.

10) Paper Chromatography Lab: Pigment Powered Plants!

11) The Cells of the Leaf and Photosynthesis: Students learn about the cells of the leaf via a cut-out manipulative!

12) Alotta Stomata: Students read more detail about stomata and how they can affect photosynthesis.

13) Photosynthesis Task Cards

14) From Sunlight to Rainbow Candy

15) Photosynthesis Crossword Puzzle

16) Photosynthesis Study Guide -

17) Who Wants to Be a Smarty Pants?: FUN interactive review game!

18) Photosynthesis Test

The unit plan comes at a bundled discount rate of 30% or more.

  • HS-LS2-3: Construct and revise an explanation based on evidence for the cycling of matter and flow of energy in aerobic and anaerobic conditions.
  • HS-LS2-5: Develop a model to illustrate the role of photosynthesis and cellular respiration in the cycling of carbon among the biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and geosphere.

NGSSHS-LS1-5
Use a model to illustrate how photosynthesis transforms light energy into stored chemical energy. Emphasis is on illustrating inputs and outputs of matter and the transfer and transformation of energy in photosynthesis by plants and other photosynthesizing organisms. Examples of models could include diagrams, chemical equations, and conceptual models. Assessment does not include specific biochemical steps.
NGSSHS-LS2-3
Construct and revise an explanation based on evidence for the cycling of matter and flow of energy in aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Emphasis is on conceptual understanding of the role of aerobic and anaerobic respiration in different environments. Assessment does not include the specific chemical processes of either aerobic or anaerobic respiration.
NGSSHS-LS2-5
Develop a model to illustrate the role of photosynthesis and cellular respiration in the cycling of carbon among the biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and geosphere. Examples of models could include simulations and mathematical models. Assessment does not include the specific chemical steps of photosynthesis and respiration.
NGSSHS-LS1-6
Construct and revise an explanation based on evidence for how carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen from sugar molecules may combine with other elements to form amino acids and/or other large carbon-based molecules. Emphasis is on using evidence from models and simulations to support explanations. Assessment does not include the details of the specific chemical reactions or identification of macromolecules.
