This activity pack contains a fun pollination activity that turns your classroom into a field of flowers for the students to pollinate. It was created as a part of a STEAM activity, and there is a paired presentation that should be viewed before the pollination activity.
Identify the basic needs of plants and animals, including air, water, food or shelter, and describe how the places they live meet those needs
Describe how people use science in their daily lives, including using patterns to make scientific predictions
Examine why advances in science are often the result of collaboration or build on the work of others
Examine how particular structural features and behaviours of living things enable their survival in specific habitats
Examine how people use data to develop scientific explanations
Describe how people use science in their daily lives, including using patterns to make scientific predictions
Investigate how scientific knowledge is used by individuals and communities to identify problems, consider responses and make decisions
Observe external features of plants and animals and describe ways they can be grouped based on these features
Investigate the physical conditions of a habitat and analyse how the growth and survival of living things is affected by changing physical conditions
Consider how people use scientific explanations to meet a need or solve a problem

Examine how people use data to develop scientific explanations
Examine why advances in science are often the result of collaboration or build on the work of others
Explain the roles and interactions of consumers, producers and decomposers within a habitat and how food chains represent feeding relationships
Compare characteristics of living and non-living things and examine the differences between the life cycles of plants and animals
Science involves testing predictions by gathering data and using evidence to develop explanations of events and phenomena and reflects historical and cultural contributions
