Root Systems Day 1: Lesson 1 of 2
by Matthew Heaston
This lesson plan focuses on developing an understanding of root systems, especially regarding surface area. The lesson has students creating their own root systems and justifications for the types of roots they may have used. The lesson provides the teacher with an area to incorporate an article, and I have provided one linked both in the presentation and notes.
