SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES: At the end of the lesson, pupils should be able to
INSTRUCTIONAL TECHNIQUES: Identification, explanation, playway method, questions and answers, demonstration, videos from source
INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS: potted flowers, seeds, charts of growing plants
INSTRUCTIONAL PROCEDURES
PERIOD 1-3: Reproduction in plants
PRESENTATION | TEACHER’S ACTIVITY | PUPIL’S ACTIVITY |
STEP 1 INTRODUCTION | The teacher revises the previous lesson on environmental quality | Pupils pay attention |
STEP 2 EXPLANATION | The teacher describes the parts of a flower Most flowers have four main parts: sepals, petals, stamens, and carpels. The stamens are the male part whereas the carpels are the female part of the flower. She also explains the meaning of pollination Pollination is the act of transferring pollen grains from the male anther of a flower to the female stigma | Pupils pay attention and participates |
STEP 3 DEMONSTRATION | She further outlines the agents and types of pollination Pollinators can be abiotic, i.e. nonliving or biotic, i.e. living. Abiotic pollinators are wind and water. Water is usually used only for few aquatic plants like seagrasses. Biotic pollinators refer to various animal species (Mammals, Reptiles, Birds, and Insects) She also highlights the process of pollination 1. After pollen has landed on the stigma, it grows a pollen tube down through the style to the ovary. 2. The nucleus of the pollen grain travels down the pollen tube and fertilises the nucleus in the ovule. 3. The fertilised ovule develops into a seed | Pupils pay attention and participate |
STEP 4 NOTE TAKING | The teacher writes a short note on the board | The pupils copy the note in their books |

Parts of a flower
