Back in May we went to the 'science rendevous', an annual science fair in Toronto, Canada. There were lots of games and hands on activities for the children. I particularly enjoyed this Pollinator game, to explain the process of plant reproduction. Flowers were made with large bright petals, and at the centre a plastic drinks bottle with a whole cut in it large enough to reach inside the bottle. You'll need to make at least two of these flowers. The bottle had tiny pom poms placed in the bottom. This is the pollen. Each child was given an insect to pollinate the flowers, made of a lollipop stick with an insect sticker on the end. On the back of the lollipop stick was a sticky pad. The pad was removed... and then the insect pollinator could reach into the flower and collect the pom-pom pollen. Once you've loaded up with pollen... You go to the next flower and pollinate it. This is a great way for young children to learn about pollination. Back home in England, we carried on learning about plant parts, pollination and fertilization. As the flowers were in full bloom in the garden, why learn from a book. We looked at a flower diagram and then we identified the parts on real flowers in the garden. We had a great morning in the garden looking at the flowers, watching the bees and butterflies visiting them. We talked about how the flowers are adapted to insect and wind pollination and Jemima enjoyed taking photos.

Are you teaching your students about fossils? If so, this activity packet is for you! Activities include... 1. What do you know about fossils? Students will write 3 facts they already know about fossils. 2. What are fossils? Students will learn the definition of a fossil. Students will also look at/color illustrations of fossils. 3. What information can we learn from studying fossils? Students will learn the importance of studying fossils. Students will also have questions to ponder to deepen their understanding of why studying fossils is important. (The answer to the last question on this page is located at the bottom of the Credits page.) 4. Types of fossils. Students will learn about four types of fossils: imprints, molds, casts, and preserved parts. Each fossil page has an activity to help deepen the students' understanding of how that fossil is formed. 5. The Fossil Song. The Fossil Song is one of my students' favorite songs to sing. They really get into the beat and the lyrics. This song reviews the four types of fossils (imprints, molds, casts, preserved parts). This song goes to the original tune of: Na, Na, Na, Na, Hey, Hey, Hey Goodbye. The artist of the original song is Steam. If you use interactive notebooks, simply have your students cut along the dotted lines on each page. Much of this packet is in black and white. This is to save your printer from using a lot of color, and it lets the students add their own style by coloring it themselves. If you like this activity, you may want to check out my Fossil Diorama activity. It would be the perfect supplement! Enjoy! The Handout Factory
