6 Flower Fantasy You are a tiny seed buried in a field of rich, dark soil. It is springtime and each day the soil surrounding you grows a little warmer in the sun and wetter with spring rain. Soon you are about to sprout. First, your root splits out of your seed coat and reaches down into the soil. Then, 2 small seed leaves push their way through the soil into the bright sunlight. You can now look out over Earth in all directions. Some puffy gray clouds blow over the face of the sun and a gentle rain begins to fall. The sweet scent of fresh rain surrounds you. Soon, the clouds pass and the warm rays of sunlight return. As each day grows a little longer, and the sun travels higher in its arc across the sky, you grow a strong, straight stem and large, wide leaves that catch the sun s energy and make the food that feeds you. More leaves appear along your stem. Near the top, your main stem begins to form a few side branches, each with a flower bud on top. Each sinking root and rising branch keeps growing in new directions. Your roots grow slowly, but they are amazingly strong. The wind bends you at times, but the roots that anchor you are strong and continue to feed you as they bring water and minerals from the soil for you to grow on. You feel the air around you passing into the pores on your leaves and know it is a breath shared with all other living things. The water being taken up by your roots has been part of other living things before you, and it will again become part of other plants and even animals once it evaporates from your green leaves and forms new rain clouds. One day, the large bud on the very top of your stem begins to open. In a few short weeks you are holding large flowers with circles of long petals up to the sun. Smell the petals of your flowers. Buzzing bees and other insects visit your flowers every day. Each time an insect visits, it gathers some of your nectar and pollen. The insect brings pollen from other Fall Lesson 2 Grade 5 4
7 flowers that brushes off onto your pistils and fertilizes them. Tiny seeds form where the flowers once grew. By the time the days of summer are getting shorter, you have formed many beautiful seeds for the next generation. Birds are landing on you now to eat your seeds. Some of the seeds are dropped by the birds far from where you are growing. The days are getting colder, and soon the first frost causes your leaves and flowers to droop. Some of your seeds begin to fall from you and land on the ground. A squirrel comes and gathers those seeds and buries them in shallow holes for winter food. The squirrel eats some seeds, but forgets others. These forgotten seeds, and the ones dropped by the birds, will grow into new plants next year. By the time the first snow falls, your stems, leaves, and flowers are brown and dying. It is time for you to break down and turn into soil to feed the next year s growth. Your seeds, in and on the soil, are waiting for the moist rains and warm sunlight of spring to return. Draw a picture of your flower! Fall Lesson 2 Grade 5 5

14 The Life Cycle of a Plant Every flowering plant comes from a seed. Most seeds grow under the ground in soil. Seeds need water and sun to grow, or germinate. Germinate means the seed begins to grow. Seeds are made up of 3 parts. 1) The outside hard part is called the seed coat. The seed coat protects the seed until it begins to germinate. 2) Inside the seed coat are 2 parts. The first part is the embryo, which is actually a baby plant. This is where the plant begins. 3) The second part inside the seed coat is the stored food. The stored food feeds the embryo until the plant grows and can use its leaves to make its own food from the sun. Look at the diagram on the next page to see all the parts of the seed labeled. Fall Lesson 5 Grade 5 12
15 After the seed begins to grow, or germinate, the seed forms a root that will search for food and water in the soil to help the seed grow. With food, water, and sun the seed starts to form its first leaves underground. The seedling needs to get those leaves to the surface so it can find more food and grow. The seedling pushes up as the roots grow downward. Fall Lesson 5 Grade 5 13
16 Once the seedling develops these first leaves, it is able to make its own food through photosynthesis. Light is important for this process to occur, as this is where the plant gets its energy. As it grows and becomes stronger, the seedling changes into a young adult plant, with many leaves. Over time the young plant will begin to produce buds at the growing tips. These open up into flowers, and begin to produce fruit. As the plant produces fruit, the seeds mature or ripen. They will eventually fade away or drop or travel to a new location. Once the seeds have dried, they are ready to be planted or stored. This is when the whole cycle starts all over again. Strawberry Plant Tomato Plant Fall Lesson 5 Grade 5 14
17 Chlorophyll Experiment Example of coffee filter strip before the tip is placed in rubbing alcohol 2007 Publications International, Ltd. See the rainbow in a leaf with a leaf chromatography experiment. Leaf juice Leaves have a green pigment called chlorophyll that they use to capture sunlight. Did you know that leaves also have pigments of other colors to capture colors of light that chlorophyll misses? Use chromatography to see a leaf s many colors. Step 1: Cut a strip 1 inch wide from a white coffee filter. Step 2: Place a leaf on the filter ½ inch above the bottom. Roll the edge of a coin over the leaf a few times, pressing leaf juice into the paper. The leaf juice should be about a ¼-inch wide band of color across the coffee filter strip. Step 3: Let the filter strip dry. Repeat the process with different colored leaves. Step 4: Your teacher will pour a ½-inch layer of rubbing alcohol into a jar. Step 5: Tape your paper strip to the middle of a pen or pencil and hang it so that the very tip of the strip touches the alcohol. (The colored stripe of leaf "juices" should not touch the alcohol -- you may have to adjust the length of the strip.) Step 6: Put a piece of foil over top of the jar to keep alcohol from evaporating. Step 7: Watch carefully as the alcohol moves up the filter paper, carrying the pigments along with it. In 10 to 20 minutes the colors should be separated. Fall Lesson 5 Grade 5 15

19 Photosynthesis The stems and leaves of most plants are green. The green color is chlorophyll. Chlorophyll helps plants grow. It helps them make oxygen and sugar. Most plants take in water through their roots. They take in carbon dioxide through the leaves. Heat and light from the sun shine on the plants. This helps the chlorophyll do its job. The plant makes sugar and oxygen. The sugar helps the plant grow bigger. The oxygen goes out into the air for us to breathe. This process, called photosynthesis, is necessary for all plants, animals, and people to live. 1. Plants get heat, light, and energy from the SUN. 2. The green color of a plant is chlorophyll. Chlorophyll helps plants make OXYGEN. Chlorophyll also helps plants make SUGAR. 3. Plants take in carbon dioxide through their LEAVES. 4. Plants take in water and minerals through their ROOTS.

35 Who Are the Three Sisters? There are many different stories about who the Three Sisters are and what they did for our people. However, all stories share how the Three Sisters saved the Native Americans from starvation. Here is one version of the story from the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois): The first man and woman created by the Great Spirit were happy with their lives on the newly formed Earth. However, they discovered that they were hungry and could not find anything to eat. The woman cried out to the Great Spirit Oh Great Spirit! We are hungry and cannot find any food. Please help us! The man noticed the mound of soil they were standing near. Three women rose out of the soil as if they grew there. The man and woman watched and listened to the mysterious women. The tallest and oldest woman had silk strings for hair, the beads of her dress were golden yellow, and she wrapped herself in a green, leafy coat. She said to them Greetings! I am Sister Corn. Eat what I grow for you and you will stand strong. The second woman was much smaller and thinner. With her beaded jewelry dangling, she held on to Sister Corn s waist in order to stand up. I am Sister Bean. Sister Corn helps me stand up to see the sun. My feet will keep the soil healthy. Eat what I grow for you and you won t be hungry. Fall Lesson 10 Grade 5 33
36 The third woman lay on the ground. She was rounder than the other two women and she had on an orange dress. Her big leafy hair covered the ground around Sister Corn and Sister Bean s feet. I am Sister Squash. My leafy hair protects my sisters feet from weeds and animals. Eat what I grow for you and share us with your children. The man and woman were delighted for the help the Great Spirit had sent them. The man asked What are we to do when your fruits have all been picked? Sister Corn replied Give thanks to us when you pick our fruits. Give thanks to us when you plant our seeds in the soil mound again. Take care of us as we return to you again. The three sisters, Corn, Bean, and Squash, changed from their human forms into healthy green plants. Sister Corn s stalk was tall and strong. Sister Bean s vines wrapped around Sister Corn s stalk. Sister Squash s big leaves covered the ground. The man and woman did what the sisters told them to do. At every planting and harvest, the man, woman, and their children gave thanks to the three sisters and the Great Spirit. They celebrated the first signs of plants growing. They took joy in caring for the plants. And they celebrated the harvesting of their fruits for ages to come. Fall Lesson 10 Grade 5 34
