Optional

Biologymad - Photosynthesis and Respiration
Take a look at the "photosynthesis" link. This site was suggested for lesson 6 as well.

Biology Project - Photosynthesis
The Photosynthesis 1 problem set includes questions and tutorials about the conversion of light energy into different forms of chemical energy during photosynthesis.
The Photosynthesis 2 problem set includes questions and tutorials about carbohydrate biosynthesis during photosynthesis, and the metabolic differences between C3 and C4 plants.

Online Biology Book - Photosynthesis
This section of Mike Farabee's online text is pretty complete in its explanation of photosynthesis.

ASU Photosynthesis Center
Indeed, the school to the north of us has a photosynthesis center. Take a look at the "What is Photosynthesis" links, and you may find others of interest as well.
