3. Assessment(s) of the Objectives:

Pre Assessment= I asked children on an individual basis if they can tell me what the parts of a flower were. I drew a flower and pointed to the petal, stem, leaf, and root and had them give me a term for each. During Assessment= After reading the book, I am a See, I will have a huge flower poster for the students to label as a class. I will take anecdotal notes while they work together to label the class flower. Then we will look at a real life flower and let each child examine it individually. Post-Assessment= Each child will have their own paper flower that they will color and cut out words to label the flower. I will use this to see if they know what the parts of the flower are.
