Photosynthesis Bundle

Description

Engaging activities for teaching your students all about photosynthesis!

My illustrated Google Slides are packed with varied activities for students to work through. They will learn about the importance of photosynthesis, equations for it, the structure of the leaf and chloroplast, and more! Including drag and drop, labeling diagrams, and more. These are zero prep activities – just assign and let students work independently.

Once students have completed the slides, the Doodle Notes are a perfect review activity or homework assignment. Then you can easily assess student progress with the self-grading Google Forms Quiz. There are images to support some questions and increase engagement.

There are answer slides and with handy teacher guides so you know how to use these activities in your classroom.
