It's Beginning to Look Like Photosynthesis by Matt T. and Chad S.
sung to "It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas"
It's Beginning to look like Photosynthesis
Everywhere plants grow;
Take a look at the leaves and stem, making glucose again
With water molecules and sunlight aglow.
It's beginning to look like Photosynthesis,
Food they need to store,
But the prettiest light to see is the violet that will be
Energizing the Phyll O' Chlor!
A pair of molecules and a cholorplast is cool
Getting the reaction to cook.
Light is needed for one, but the other needs none
We read that in a book
Here comes photosynthesis, so why don't you take a look?
It's beginning to look like Photosynthesis
Everywhere plants grow;
There's a tree breathing CO2 and mixing water too
Making lots of food plants need to grow.
It's beginning to look a lot like Photosynthesis;
Soon the reaction starts,
And we will all eat the plants and have energy to dance,
As glucose fuels our hearts.
Science Ride by Jeff R.
sung to "Sleigh Ride"
Just see those plant cells absorbing sunlight to make their own food.
Their big vacuoles store water and nutrients too.
Their thick cell walls protect them and let things in and out.
We can learn more about them if we go on the science ride route.
Giddy up, Giddy up, Giddy up let's go!
There's so much to know.
We're made of millions of cells in a row.
Giddy up, Giddy up, Giddy up, it's grand!
Just think of a man.
So many different cells in his hand!
Our cells are different than plants 'cause we don't have chloroplasts.
We can't pho-to-syn-the-size just like the grass!
