Curated OER
String Cells
Use this resource to have your class learn about the cell. This resource walks learners through the construction of a model of a cell. This project is completed in a cooperative learning group, and reinforces the higher-order...
Science 4 Inquiry
Eukaryotic Cells: The Factories of Life
Eukaryotes include humans, animals, and plants. Scholars learn about the parts of eukaryotic cells. They design models of a store and match the correct function of each part to the function of a part of the cell. They review their...
Curated OER
A Cell Is Like A City
Students create analogies that help them remember the cell parts as well as their respective functions.
Curated OER
Cell 5 Diffusion and Osmosis
Students distinguish between active and passive transport. Students identify key words associated with active and passive transport. They draw and explain the structure f the cellular membrane. They are able to define phospholipid...
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.
Curated OER
Cell Works
Students identify the different parts of the cells and their functions. In this biology instructional activity, students create an analogy of a cell and its organelles. They make a poster and present it to class.
Curated OER
Protein Synthesis Activities
Young scholars compare the process of protein synthesis in an analogy. They simulate the process of protein synthesis kinesthetically using index cards and write a paragraph to explain the process.
Curated OER
Osmosis
Students explore diffusion and active transport. They observe the effects of eggs in vinegar and predict what will happen when eggs are placed in corn syrup with food coloring. Students complete worksheets which lead them to describe...
Curated OER
Diffusion
Learners develop the concept of diffusion. In this science lesson plan, students demonstrate diffusion of molecules of matter in various states.
