Jírovec maďal ve výuce – reprodukční orgány

Horse chestnut is literally predisposed to didacticisation in botany teaching due to its general distribution, large and
conspicuous organs; we are basically sure that pupils really know it. The paper focuses mainly on the morphological
and anatomical characters that can be demonstrated during teaching biology; topics that are conspicuously or typically
developed—firstly its origin (geographic and etymological), later it is devoted to vegetative and finally reproductive
organs. The parasite horse-chestnut leaf miner is also discussed. It provides a description of all aspects and
broader contexts that can be beneficial in school teaching; this paper does not attempt to present this information in
the form of a project proposal or comprehensive activities, rather it should inspire and encourage laboratory and field
work in biology classes in common ways—we believe that teachers will choose activities that are appropriate for their
teaching.
In addition to botanical content, the paper also links to the teaching of microbiology or chemistry to facilitate the use
of interdisciplinary topics both in biology and in the natural sciences.
The paper is divided in two following up parts; this is the second part that focuses on reproductive organs.
