Pollination is the process of moving pollen from one flower to another. The pollen is transferred from the male parts of a flower to the female parts of a flower of the same kind.

The pollen moves from anthers to stigma.

GROUP DISCUSSION

ROOM 1: TALK ABOUT HOW BEES POLLINATE PLANTS

ROOM 2: TALK ABOUT HOW BUTTERFLIES POLLINATE PLANTS.

ROOM 3: FIND OUT WHICH OTHER ANIMALS HELP IN POLLINATION.

GROUP PRESENTATION

BEES AND BUTTERFLIES
