Flowers | Biology / Life Science Article + Research Project Template
Energize your plant‑science lessons with the Flowers Reading and Research Bundle, a two‑part resource that fuses literacy and inquiry for middle school science and high school biology classrooms. The fifteen‑paragraph reading passage explores floral anatomy, pollination, and ecological importance, then reinforces comprehension through six engaging prompts: three text‑based questions, a fill‑in‑the‑gaps activity, true‑or‑false checks, and a critical‑thinking challenge that sparks discussion. Building on this foundation, the companion research project template guides students to craft a concise one‑paragraph summary, students might analyze real growth data in the mathematics connection, and they could link biomimicry in petals to modern agriculture in the engineering or technological section, while a focused five‑term glossary secures essential vocabulary for assessments. Differentiation is effortless thanks to three core inquiry questions plus two additional sets of three that can be swapped to suit younger or advanced learners, and a spacious creative item area invites posters, podcasts, or 3‑D models that showcase deeper understanding. A transparent 20‑point rubric supports self, peer, or teacher assessment for quick, fair grading, and the detailed teacher guide supplies pacing tips, sample responses, and extension ideas, making this bundle a must‑have for boosting engagement, meeting standards, and driving measurable gains in STEM literacy every time it is assigned. This flowers research project template (webquest) provides the perfect grab and go, print and provide resource that can help your students learn all about flowers. For digital, you can provide a Google doc copy for ease of submission or a Microsoft word version as well. In this flowers research project template (webquest) with questions to check comprehension and inspire scientific thinking. It gives a rich and supportive framework that can be tweaked as needed for students to support differentiation. This flowers research project template includes: * Space for a one paragraph summary (that links to the 2 page science article also available on this topic - but does not have to). * Students should produce a mathematical connection, an engineering / technology connection, 2 interesting facts / stats. * 5 glossary terms they should fill in with their own words (which also links to the science article also available) * 3 thought provoking questions (ie: critical thinking questions) they must answer. * Finally, each template has 3 alternative thought provoking questions for younger students and 3 other alternative harder questions to extend high flying or older students. Giving you a total of 9 possible thought provoking questions that could be used with students to enhance their research and critical thinking. * Further, I have added a 1 page - 20 point rubric to be used for either self-assessment or teacher assessment as you deem fit. I hope it helps support the learning even further! The template is some of my best work and I am proud to share it with you.
