This is a complete and comprehensive plan that covers photosynthesis from notes to test and all the fun stuff in between. There are 17 items total and it is designed for student comprehension! There is also a planner included so you know which order you can use the items in.

This unit can be used as a stand alone curriculum or as part of an existing curriculum.

Topics included:
✿ Light dependent reactions of photosynthesis - electron transport chain
✿ Hydrolysis
✿ Light independent reactions - Calvin Cycle
✿ Connection between light and dark reactions
✿ Rate of photosynthesis: wavelengths, light, and temperature
✿ Rate of photosynthesis lab- carbon dioxide, oxygen (Elodea)
✿ Cells of the leaf and stomata
✿ Why Leaves change color
✿ Pigment Lab

Included in this bundled unit are:
1) Photosynthesis Notes: 20 slide PowerPoint presentation with student notes included.
2) Photosynthesis Quiz (I use this as an open note but it is editable and can be used however you wish).
3) Photosynthesis Practice: Great homework assignment!
4) Photosynthesis and Light
5) The Reactions of Photosynthesis: a 3 page summary of photosynthesis reading, coloring and labeling.
6) Green Solar Cells: All About Chloroplasts!
7) The Calvin Cycle: Practice all about the Calvin cycle!
8) The Elodea Took My Breath Away!: Lab that observes photosynthesis (or lack thereof) in certain conditions using Elodea.
Photosynthesis Closed Note Quiz- 18 questions (mostly matching)
9) Why Leaves Change Color (The Tale of the Masked Pigments): Reading article familiarizing students with different pigments.
10) Paper Chromatography Lab: Pigment Powered Plants!
11) The Cells of the Leaf and Photosynthesis: Students learn about the cells of the leaf via a cut-out manipulative!
12) Alotta Stomata: Students read more detail about stomata and how they can affect photosynthesis.
13) Photosynthesis Task Cards
14) From Sunlight to Rainbow Candy
15) Photosynthesis Crossword Puzzle

16) Who Wants to Be a Smarty Pants?: FUN interactive review game!
17) Photosynthesis Test

If all items were purchased separately, it would cost $40.96. I am offering the bundled unit plan at a 30% discount for $27.99!
