Learning

1. Knowledge

Factors affecting the growth of plants

           There are 4 main factors that can affect the growth of your plants. They are water, light, nutrients, and temperature.

1)     Water helps dissolve minerals in the soil. Transports minerals to different parts of plants. And reduce the heat in the plant.

2)     Minerals are essential for plant growth. The minerals are in the soil. Help in exuberance

3)     Air Plants must breathe like humans and animals. Plants use oxygen to breathe. And use carbon dioxide to create food.

4)     Light Plants need light to create nutrients. For use in growth. Most of the light comes from the sun.

5)     Temperature affects the breathing of plants If the temperature is high, the plant will breathing fast, slower growth.

6)     Artificial light the effect of light on plant life has greater intensity of color during, and more rapid ripening of fruit. and that the flowers, if produced, have in general a fainter shade of color.

                        1.1.2 What are the factors affecting the growth of human, animals and plants?

                        (Answers : People and animals need food, water and air. Plants need water, minerals, air and light.)

Step 2 : Learning to Search

            2.1 Teachers give the document about factors affecting the growth of plants to all students.

2.2 Teachers use technology media. Include Microsoft office Power Point, Computer and Overhead Projector (TV) for teaching and explanation.

Step 3 : Learning to Construct

3.1 Students are divided class into 6 groups.

3.2 Each group discusses factors affecting the growth of plants.

Group 1 : Water

Group 2 : Mineral

Group 3 : Air

Group 4 : Natural light

Group 5 : Temperature

Group 6 : Artificial light

Step 4 : Learning to Communicate

          4.1 Each group sends out representatives in front of the class to write their answers on the board and present their work.

Step 5 : Learning to Service

5.1 Teacher answers with explanations. Discuss with students the benefits of learning about factors affecting the growth of plants. With the following questions:

            5.1.1 What are the benefits of learning about the factors that affect plant growth? How can I apply it?

            (Answers : The answer is based on student feedback.)
