All about photosynthesis

How much do you know about photosynthesis? I didn't realize how much I didn't know until I started creating my lens on "gardening", and "plants and sunlight".

Since I knew so little, I figured there are sure to be many others out there that know very little, plus if I research, and gather info on just what photosynthesis is, it would make a great science lesson for my kids.

So I went about gathering up info on photosynthesis, and found that YouTube has a great number of videos on photosynthesis, so that is what I gathered up a great deal of, YouTube videos on photosynthesis!

Besides YouTube videos, I've gathered a number of links on photosynthesis so you will have other sources to look at.

    My school has now unblocked teachertube. You can request this from your district technology department. Many of these videos are now found there.

    Very eclectic and mostly well-chosen resources. I especially liked the very complete lesson plan in your first link. The first two videos say "removed by user," though they looked cool. Copyright problems?

    It'd be great to use in the classroom, BUT, I haven't found a single public school system server that will allow access to youTube.
