Engage:
What is this season?
Teacher makes a note of the importance of monsoon season that is rainfall.
Students collect the information about the average rainfall of monsoon of their local
for the past 3 years.

4. Students find the importance of rainfall for cultivation
plants need water to prepare their food

5. Students make a table of observations of this activity.
Observation of two potted plants one with proper
supply of water and other without watering for few days.

6. Thus pupils come to know plants prepare their own food with the help of CO2, water, Chlorophyll in
the presence of sunlight .

reason of wilting of a plant
or drying of leaves, etc.,

9. Low achievers are
asked to draw the
schematic diagram
of preparation of
food in plants
(Photosynthesis
High achievers are
asked to explain the
process & draw the
schematic diagram
