I. Objective:
Identifies the important parts of a flower that can make a new plant
Values: Care for the plants in the same way as you care for your loved ones.
A. Science Concept/Idea:

SCIENCE AND HEALTH IV
Date: ____________
I. Objective:
Values: Nature has provided different organisms with different but interdependent life-styles.
A. Science Concept/Idea:
1. The sexual reproduction in plants starts when pollen grains from the anther of one flower
transfers to the stigma of the same flower or of another flower of the same plant, or another
flower of another plant.
2. The first two are known as self-pollination
3. The latter is know as the cross-pollination
4. Pollination is often aided by the wind, insects, birds, other animals, water and men.
B. Science Processes:
Observing, describing, inferring and communicating
C. Materials:
Real flowers and enlarged picture of flower
Pictures of the agents of pollination

2. Perfect flower (bisexual) is a kind of flower with both the stamen and the pistil.
3. Imperfect flower (unisexual) is a kind of flower when only one of the stamen or the pistil is
present.
