# Lesson Plan # Introduction Seeds are unique organs of seed plants, and their main function is reproduction. The shape, size, color, surface texture, etc. of seeds vary with plant species. Seeds are often round, oval, kidney-shaped, egg-shaped, conical, polygonal, etc. In order to help children understand seeds, Wu has prepared 3 kindergarten science activity "Seeds" lesson plans for your reference!

Kindergarten science activity "Seeds" lesson plan 1: Making seed specimens activity objectives

1. Preliminarily learn to make simple seed specimens, develop knowledge* about seeds, and develop hands-on ability, creative ability and preliminary sense of cooperation.

2. Be willing to try boldly and share your experience with your peers.

3. Be able to listen carefully and respect the speeches of peers during communication activities.

Activity process

1. Show loquat seeds and ask: Do you recognize this seed?

2. Show the seeds of soybeans, watermelons, and rice and ask: Can you name the names of these seeds?

3. Show three similar-looking seeds of apple, pear, and grape, and ask: Who can find the apple seed?

(Questions gradually increase in difficulty to stimulate children’s inner cognitive needs.)

4. Teacher: Let’s think of a good way to find out what you want in one go. of seeds.

Child 1: Draw an apple and place it next to the seed.

Child 2: Make an apple next to the apple seed.

5. Teacher summary: Draw the fruit, cut it out and paste it on the calendar paper to make an icon. Paste the corresponding seeds under the icon to become a seed specimen.

6. Children can choose their favorite seeds and draw corresponding fruit icons.

Most children choose four or five kinds of seeds, and most of them draw simpler fruits. After the teacher reminded that ready-made icons can be used, the seeds of vegetables, grains, and trees were also favored by the children.

7. Fix the seeds under the corresponding icon with transparent glue (teacher assists children in completing this).

8. Appreciate each other’s works.

Reflection:

Every aspect of the activity design is based on stimulating children’s interest in exploration, learning initiative and enthusiasm, and cultivating children’s self-confidence and creativity. It not only allows children to discover The results are displayed and existing knowledge is consolidated, making it easier for children to observe better.

Kindergarten science activity "Seeds" lesson plan 2: Planting seeds Activity objectives

1. Try to plant, increase interest in exploration and continuous observation, and cultivate preliminary awareness of labor and competition.

2. Develop children’s hands-on ability.

3. Make the children feel happy and fun, and they should learn knowledge without knowing it.

Activity process

1. Planting activities

(1) Arouse children’s desire to plant seeds: Do you want to know how they grow? Show the small pots, small shovels and various seeds prepared by the teacher for the children.

(2) Ask the children to choose a seed and compare it with the seed specimen picture to confirm what kind of seed it is.

(3) The teacher explains and demonstrates the planting process: dig out the soil in a small pot, put the seeds in, then cover it with soil, and finally pour an appropriate amount of water.

(4) Children try to plant and put corresponding seed icons and their names on the pots (the teacher provides random guidance and help).

Most children choose vegetable seeds and can plant them according to the correct steps, but it is difficult to control the depth of digging and the amount of watering.

(Planting activities are not the focus of this series of activities, but are designed to stimulate children to continue observation.)

2. Observation and management

After one or two weeks, Some of the seeds have been unearthed, but some have not yet moved.

(1) Teachers and children observe and compare the growth of seeds every day.

Young 1: The vegetable seeds I planted sprouted and two small leaves grew.

Young 2: My broad beans have also sprouted. They are taller than his vegetables and have larger leaves.

Young 3: Why haven’t my soybeans sprouted yet?

(2) Dig the soil with the children to observe, understand and analyze the reasons why the seeds do not germinate.

Some seeds, such as edamame, are rotten because of too much water; some seeds are buried too deep and have difficulty germinating.

(3) Help these children replant seeds to retain their attention and interest in the seeds.

Reflection:

Children plant and manage themselves, which reflects their active exploration. In comparison with their peers’ planting situation, it also cultivates children’s observation, comparative ability and preliminary sense of competition.

Kindergarten Science Activity "Seeds" Lesson Plan 3: Seed Appearance Characteristics Activity Objectives

1. Guide children to classify seeds according to obvious characteristics such as size, color, and whether they are edible.

2. Know the uses of seeds and develop children’s initial awareness of observation, comparison and positive thinking.

3. Children can communicate in complete Mandarin.

4. Improve children’s thinking agility.

Activity process

1. Display the seeds prepared by the teacher and let the children observe freely.

Question: Can you name these seeds?

For seeds that are difficult to identify, please refer to the icon.

2. Teacher: There are so many seeds, let’s classify them.

(1) The teacher reminds you to click "Edible" to put the edible seeds in the box and the inedible seeds in the basket.

(2) Let the children think about how they can divide them (encourage the children to discuss with each other).

Question: What method did you use to divide it? What other methods can be used?

(Guide children to discover that seeds can be classified according to size, color, and shape.)

Children 1: Put rice and soybeans together. Put the seeds of loquat, apple, green vegetables and watermelon together.

Child 2: Put the seeds of loquat and soybean together (relatively large), and put the seeds of apple, watermelon, rice, and vegetables together (relatively small).

Child 3: Put the seeds of green vegetables, soybeans, and loquats together (they are round), and put the seeds of rice, apples, and watermelons together (a little pointed).

3. Teacher: Do you know what the seeds are used for?

Young 1: Watermelon, pumpkin, and rice seeds can be eaten.

Children 2: Loquat seeds can be planted, and loquat trees will grow...

The teacher and the children came to the conclusion together: some seeds can be eaten, and some cannot be eaten; seeds They can all be planted, they will grow into seedlings after germination, and they will bear fruit when they grow up.

Comment: Teachers keenly capture children’s shifting interests and adjust activity plans in a timely manner to meet children’s cognitive needs.

Reflection on activities

Regarding seeds, according to the traditional teaching content, it is usually arranged in large classes, but this series of activities from searching to planting allows children in small classes to be immersed in active exploration from beginning to end. among.

The success of activity design lies not only in the fact that teachers constantly capture children’s interests, explore educational value, and generate activities. The specific activity goals are suitable for the learning characteristics and understanding levels of small class children. More importantly, teachers do not Activities are only regarded as "classes" in the past, but education is truly infiltrated into life and various activities. For example, teachers use the daily routine of children eating fruit as an exploratory activity to support children in finding seeds, allowing children to gradually accumulate relevant experience in familiar life activities. It is not difficult to imagine that compared with educational activities specially organized by teachers, such teacher-student interaction will be natural and stress-free for both children and teachers.
