Description

In this game, Ms. Rose will teach you about the chemical reactions in photosynthesis. You will learn the information and then demonstrate your knowledge in a series of mini-games that are varied and fun. Collect badges as you go, and when you have earned five badges you can build a robot! A short quiz at the end will help you master this area. Good luck!

Instructions

Play through this interactive game to learn about Chemical Reactions in Photosynthesis. Suitable for Grade 6, Grade 7, Grade 8.

Main Concepts

The products of photosynthesis are oxygen and sugar.

The primary source of energy on Earth's surface is sunlight.

The material reactants in photosynthesis include water and carbon dioxide.

The function of photosynthesis is to make food for a plant to live and grow.

Photosynthesis is an endothermic chemical reaction.

In photosynthesis, radiant energy from the sun is transformed into chemical energy.

Energy from fossil fuels and biomass is released when they are burned.

Chemical reactions can transform energy within living organisms.

Chemical energy stored in fossil fuels and biomass is produced originally by photosynthesis.

Discussion Questions

Before the Game

What do plants eat? What part of the plant collects the sunlight? Why are plants considered producers and animals are considered consumers?

After the Game

Write the equation that represents photosynthesis. What are the inputs and outputs of photosynthesis? Why is sunlight so important for plants? What are the green structures inside plants called and what do they do?
