Lesson objectives Timings Planned activities

Understand the importance of water and mineral salts to plant growth 2 x 40 min Beginning
- Revise previous learning by asking learners: Define and describe photosynthesis,
and use the word equation.
- Learners observe pictures of Venus Fly Trap
- Learners observe the picture that show plant that are stunted (small) and yellow

Middle
- Explain water role in Plants
- Show pictures of plants that are suffering from water deficiency
- Explain the examples of mineral salt and their function
- Show pictures of plants that are suffering from mineral deficiencies. Ask: How do
plants get the minerals they need?
- Explain the function of water for support, transport, cooling and photosynthesis

End
- Conclude that minerals and water are needed by plants for healthy growth.
Deficiencies can cause characteristic symptoms in plants.
