Task • Over the weekend you will come up with a creative way to demonstrate the DETAILED steps of Photosynthesis • I’m being vague in order to allow you to “do your thing” Requirement: The only thing your project has to do is list the steps of Photosynthesis in a memorable way

Juices Flowing • I don’t want to give you guys too many examples, because I want this project to be YOUR OWN! • But here a few tips:

What it SHOULD NOT LOOK LIKE: This is a good science experiment and it does demonstrate factors affecting the rate of photosynthesis… however that’s not the task at hand. You need to do something that illustrates the STEPS involved in the process of Photosynthesis

What it SHOULD NOT LOOK LIKE: Although this is a creative way to show products and reactants, it does not list STEPS

What it SHOULD NOT LOOK LIKE: This one is getting closer… showing what comes in and goes out in order, but it doesn’t list internal steps that occur in the chloroplasts.

Almost! The only thing this is missing is a few steps and the name of the different cycles.
