PHOTOSYNTHESIS WITH
Pick four students to perform aloud pages 22–23 from the book. Prior to
a public performance, have students look through the pages and identify
their character. Students can then use the scripts provided on this CD-ROM
to practice their parts. Suggested props: lab coat and sunglasses for Max
Axiom (Summer and Spring), winter coat and hat for Max (Winter).

Main Script
Max – Winter: How do these plants survive the long,
cold winter without photosynthesis? They become
dormant and rely on energy stored during the growing
season.
Understanding Photosynthesis with Max Axiom – Reader’s Theater
Max – Spring: In spring, the photosynthesis process
starts again. Longer days, warmer temperatures, and
wetter weather awakens the plants. Soon, small leaf
buds burst from their branches.
Max – Summer: In no time, the leaves are soaking up
the sun’s summer rays and turning energy into food
again.

Max – Fall: Plants need photosynthesis to survive, but
in cold climates some plants lose this ability. As days
grow shorter in the fall, these plants stop producing
green chlorophyll. The leaves reveal brilliant red,
orange, and yellow colors. Eventually, the leaves fall off
altogether.
