whose lawfulness reflects the faithfulness of God.

technological application: to God, to ourselves, to our fellow human beings, and to the rest of
creation.
- We will promote the idea that science provides important tools for the study and development

Enduring Understandings Essential Questions

The students will know that different parts of a
flowering plant and a tree. The students will
understand and describe a growing process of a
flowering plant (a seed to a flower). Plants grow
with a process of photosynthesis. They need
water, soil (minerals) and sunlight to grow. We
get fruits and vegetables from the plants. Human
use trees to make papers, and houses. Plants
produces oxygen. Therefore, human need to
protect forests and plants.
