Curated OER
MAKING THREE DIMENSIONAL PLANT AND ANIMAL CELLS
Students create two different cells, one plant and one animal. In this plant and animal cell lesson students form groups and construct a part of a cell. Students then put them all together to form one plant or animal cell.
Curated OER
Cell Reviews
Students draw cells, make a cell, and list organelles in plant and animal cells. In this cells lesson plan, students create edible cells.
Curated OER
How Genes Work Lesson Plan
Students define the key terms that are the structure and function of DNA. In this genetics lesson students complete a lab activity in which they construct a model DNA structure.
Curated OER
Plant and Animal Cell Structure
Seventh graders identify the different parts and functions of the cell. In this biology lesson, 7th graders make a labelled diagram of either a plant or animal cell. They write a story about it.
Curated OER
Notes on Cell Organelles
Middle schoolers record information and write journal entries on the structure and function of cell organelles while viewing a Powerpoint presentation.
Curated OER
Light Microscopes
Seventh graders study the parts of a light microscope, and its proper use. They identify each part and explain why it is important to know how to use this tool. They practice observing newsprint on a wet mount slide.
Curated OER
Cell Community
Seventh graders use technology to review cell structure and function. In this cells less, 7th graders review the parts and functions of a cell, and use photography/video and PowerPoint to enhance their explorations.
Curated OER
Cell Structure and Function
Students compare the organelles present in plant and animal cells. In this biology lesson, students create an analogy to easily remember their assigned organelles. They also research their function and write a creative story.
