Our five-day unit plan on pollinators investigates not only the importance of pollination, but various types of pollinators, what actually happens during pollination and more. Teachers and students can utilize graphic organizers, writing prompts, engaging daily lesson plans, exit tickets, informal assessments, and hands-on activities to uncover more about the world of pollination.
