Plant Adaptation
by Evelyn Peralta
In this hands-on lesson, students learn about and explore plant adaptations through various readings and pictures of plant adaptations. They study Venus Flytraps specifically and labels the different parts of the plant. Students will create a paper plate Venus Flytrap and analyze information on the plant adaptations from different environments. Lastly, students use the knowledge gained about the plant adaptations to design and create a fly trap device.
