Flower Dissections and Plant Functions

May 9, 2025 | Science, 2025 Archive

This week in Science, students have been learning about the structure and function of plants. As part of the topic, they dissected flowers to identify the different parts and examined them under the microscope.

Getting hands-on with real specimens helped make the learning come alive, and the microscopes sparked genuine curiosity—there was lots of excitement as students spotted pollen, ovules, and tiny details they hadn’t seen before. A simple activity, but one that left a strong impression.
