EOU Exam on Thursday, May 1st
Learning Intention
Students will be able to identify the reactants and products that a plant uses in order to create its own food in the form of simple sugar/Glucose.
Success Criteria
I am successful when I can.
1) Analyze a student response and determine why it is incorrect and modify it to the correct answer.
2) Explore a common phenomenon with my peers through discussion
3) Actively read and annotate a dense text in preparation for my regents.
4) Apply my knowledge of concepts and vocabulary to novel situations posed in regents questions.
Standards
HS-LS1-6: Construct and revise an explanation based on evidence for how carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms are conserved during photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
Reminders
1) Quiz grades have been posted.
2) Tutoring on Thursdays in A-301 PD 9 and afterschool.
3) Exam on 10/24 on entire Unit.
Part 1
Warm-Up
Something Looks Sus'
Directions: Read all three problems below and the student responses. Answer the following questions:
1) Which student response is incorrect?
2) Explain, why it is incorrect.
3) Re-write the student's answer, making it correct.
As fish are frozen for storage, the water in the cells expands as it cools from 4 degrees C to 0 degrees C. This lowers the quality of the fish. Explain how soaking the fish briefly in salt water before freezing them might prevent this damage to the cells.
In the diagram below, draw the 5 starch molecules and the 12 glucose molecules to show where they would most likely be located after 15 minutes.
By placing the fish in salt water, the water inside the fish cells will move into the salt water. The fish cells will shrink. If the fish cells are frozen there won't be water in the cells to expand.
This is active transport because energy is being used to move the molecules from a low concentration to a high concentration.
Part 2
Turn and Talk
Numero Uno
TN'T: Trees are enormous! Where do they get their food to grow and weigh so much?
Part 3
Active Reading
Directions:
Step #1) Choose ONE (1) of the readings below.

Part 4
Turn n' Talk
Numero Dos
TN'T: Based off what you have learned about photosynthesis, can a plant or tree grow without soil? What does a plant absolutely need to live?
Part 5
Stop N' Jot
From the video, we learned that trees (and all plants) in a way sort of do eat, even though they don't have a mouth.
🔑Key Concept: Plants make their own food by taking in CARBON DIOXIDE 🌫️ and WATER 💧. Using energy from the SUN ☀️ they convert these two substances into GLUCOSE🍬 (their food) and OXYGEN. This process is called PHOTOSYNTHESIS.
📚Vocabulary:
Photosynthesis: the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water.
Chloroplast: an organelle within the cells of plants and certain algae that is the site of photosynthesis.
C6H12O6: The chemical formula for glucose (simple sugar)
Part 5
