Curated OER
Cells All Around
Students measure the size of an epithelial cell and to estimate the number of epithelial cells in a given area of the body. After watching a video on cells, student groups perform an experiment using a microscope to view some of their...
Curated OER
Body Organization and Organ Systems
Eighth graders begin the lesson by building a house of cards. They discuss ways that building a house of cards is similar to the way the body is built: different systems work together to help the whole body work together. Students listen...
Curated OER
Totally Cellular
In this biology worksheet, students learn about cells and their various parts. They first read a page and a half of facts about cells and then answer the 10 questions in the packet. The answers are on the last page.
