Lesson Plans and Worksheets
When I first started teaching, coming up with activities and lesson plans was nerve racking. Soon, the activities became boring year after year. Lesson Planet has helped me create lessons and activities that keeps students actively engaged. Thanks Lesson Planet.

Cellular biology Lesson Plans
Find teacher approved Cellular Biology lesson plan ideas and activities
Identify the different cell organelles in prokaryotes. Modelling the cells using Jell-o and candies will be a fun way to experience the cell in a hands-on way (different to using play-doh!). They observe cells under a microscope and draw what they see.
By exploring the latest research on cell and tissue renewal your young scientists can understand the various internal body parts and systems examined in these studies.
Make a prototype of a game based on cell biology. Researching game design and working in groups to create a game will activate knowledge of cell biology. The review task will help students learning as they test out the games and their conclusion skills as they review and rate.
Explore the concept of evolution and cell biology; your class can work in groups to use the internet to view websites on evolution, take a quiz, and complete a lab activity.
Observation of sister chromatids is possible as students culture and stain mammal tissue cells.
Data about cell division in this three lesson unit is explored. Hands-on activities, labs, technology, and a few "tricks-of-the trade" enhance the concepts being learnt.
Do you need to review animal cell structure? Investigate the ways in which different types of cells interact in a common human reflex. Your students can explore the functions of stem cells, consider various illnesses and assess stem cells potential to aid in cures. This lesson uses resources from a textbook along with research on the internet and index cards (not included) as a source of information.
Students conduct an experiment comparing human cells to chicken cells. In this cells lesson plan, students conduct an experiment to see how nutrition moves through cells and how to better take care of their bodies.
Learners study and explore the cell and its functions. In this investigative students engage with the teacher over a powerpoint presentation and learn about cells and proteins.
Students create simple 2D concept driven visualizations of cells and cell organelles and organize them into an effective presentation.
