Using Your Diagrams Choose the overhead diagram you want to teach and place it on an overhead projector. Discuss the information in the diagram with the students. For example, on the “Photosynthesis” diagram, explain the process and function of each part of the plant that assists in photosynthesis. Point out vocabulary and definitions. After discussion, choose one question card at a time to display. Place the question card in the blank box at the bottom of the diagram and have students review the diagram to find the answer. Designed to meet these objectives: Language • Students • Students • Students • Students will will will will recognize the structures of plants and flowers. recognize the structures of plant and animal cells. identify the process of photosynthesis. identify the components of the food web. These colorful overhead diagrams are a handy way to reinforce science concepts and help prepare students for the science sections of standardized tests. The set comes complete with 4 overhead diagrams with 8 question cards for each, and a storage folder to keep everything organized. The diagrams give information on plants or animals in an easy-to-understand format, with labeled pictures and many fun facts. All answers to the question cards can be found on the diagrams, so you have everything you need in one place. Great for a whole-class lesson or quick review, these overhead diagrams are sure to be a big hit with your students! What’s Included • 4 diagrams • 32 cut-apart question cards • Storage folder Before You Begin Carefully cut out the question cards for each diagram. Keep all the questions in the storage folder. For each activity, take out the question cards that go with the overhead you are using. (The border color of the diagram matches the border of the question cards.) Answers to the questions can be found in the next section of this guide. © 2008 Lakeshore (800) 428-4414 www.lakeshorelearning.com Suggested Activities • Have students make their own copy of the diagrams to keep in their science folder. Have them draw a picture of the diagram and label it. Students can write facts on a separate piece of paper. • Have students work in groups or pairs to find answers to the question cards. • Create a jigsaw activity with the four diagrams. Photocopy each diagram. Divide the class into four groups and assign each group a different diagram to study. Have each group present their information to the class using the original overhead diagram. • Turn the questions into a science game. After discussing the diagrams and facts with the class, put students into four teams. Take turns asking each team a question. If a team misses a question, it goes to the next team. Assign 1 or 2 points for a right answer. The team with the most points wins. You may want to create more questions for this activity. Simply use an overhead marker to write in another question, or create new question cards on index cards.

Include a picture or drawing to go along with each word. Have students practice reading and repeating the words. Write the vocabulary words on index cards and place them on a ring so that students can refer to them during the lessons. You may also choose to write each word and picture on a class chart. Reteach/Extra Support In a small group, show one science diagram at a time. Explain the concept and have students trace or draw a diagram to reinforce the concept. When using the question cards, cross out two of the incorrect answer choices and allow students to choose from the remaining two choices. Challenge When students have mastered the concepts of a diagram, show them a question card, but do not show the answer choices. Instead, have the students answer in their own words and explain the concept. Encourage students to create their own questions for the diagrams. 3
