Daily Learning Targets

  • I can recite the poem and song about pollination for an audience.
  • I can construct my Performance Task Poster about my pollinator.
  • I can present my learning about plants and pollinators to my peers. 

Ongoing Assessment

  • During Work Time B, continue to circulate and assess student progress for the Unit 3 Assessment using the Speaking and Listening Checklist (see Assessment Overview and Resources).

Purpose of Lesson

  • This is the second lesson in a series of three during which students practice their full oral presentations. During Work Time B, students individually rehearse their oral presentations using the Oral Presentation Notecards completed in Lesson 5 with their Performance Task Poster. While students rehearse, circulate to use the Speaking and Listening Checklist, which will serve as the Unit 3 Assessment. Note: Given the number of students and time allocated, plan accordingly in terms of how many students to observe each day across Lessons 10–12.

In Advance

  • Predetermine presentation groups, with four students in each. Within each group, number students 1–4 so they know their presentation order. Pre-assign each group a different area of the room to practice.
  • Prepare the Performance Task Poster: Bee Model by using the Scientific Drawings and Captions: Bee Model and adding a title about “secret” on it.
  • Prepare Performance Task Poster board Materials: large colored paper, markers, copies of completed Scientific Drawings and Captions Template, glue sticks.
  • Post: Learning targets, “Plants around the World," Poem, “It’s Pollination Time!” Version 1, and applicable anchor charts.
