Students will examine how the seeds have adapted to use different methods of dispersal to get to a new sprouting spot in this lesson, offered by the Royal Botanical Gardens. Students will discover ways to categorize seeds' appearances by looking at a variety of seeds from home or previously collected outside. We will connect those physical characteristics with the way those seeds disperse. We will examine "close-up" special features of certain dispersal methods. Finally after the videoconference, students will design their own seed considering the method of dispersal they have chosen and the adaptations we have discovered.
