Plant Reproduction
Describe the structure of a flower and explain the processes of wind and insect pollination, fertilisation, seed and fruit formation, and seed dispersal in plants

Teaching Table
Set out your lesson
Follow flowering-plant reproduction from pollen transfer to seed dispersal.
Ask for an example of one prerequisite idea; revisit if needed. Historical graph coverage does not establish this learner’s readiness.
Use the supplied flower-parts and sequence cards. No picking, tasting, dissection or handling unknown plants.
Use supplied stage sheets on screen or scrap paper; keep adult keys separate.
Use the fictional scenarios. Passing is allowed. Do not ask for private money amounts, account details, family conflict, identity or health information. Keep only minimal local learning notes.
Supplied data are explicitly practice data, not observations. Record only what is actually attempted; absent equipment, consent, partner or repeated observations means that part remains pending.
Use the complete materials on screen or print only the current sheet. Keep adult guidance out of learner view. Retain an earlier model only when the current step supplies it as context.
Teaching limits and safe use
These are finite task opportunities, not proof of mastery. Record what was attempted and what support was used.
A general flowering-plant model; supplied descriptions rather than live bee/flower observations. No claim that every flower has identical features.

Check understanding
- Labels the main parts of a flower (sepals, petals, stamens, carpel, ovary, ovule)
- Compares wind-pollinated and insect-pollinated flowers and explains adaptations of each
- Traces the journey from pollination to seed dispersal
- Identifies and explains at least two methods of seed dispersal
“If your child watched bees visiting flowers in a garden, could they explain what role the bees are playing and trace the full journey from pollination through to seed dispersal?”
