Curated OER
Journey to the Center of a Cell
Ninth graders create a large scale model of a eukaryotic cell. In this biology lesson, 9th graders identify the different parts and function of the cells by using a robot to navigate through the cell models. They create a video tutorial...
Curated OER
Cell (Biology)
Students conduct a series of activities to explore the nature of cells. In this biology activity, students observe plant and animal cells under the microscope and compare them. They differentiate osmosis and diffusion.
Curated OER
The City Inside a Cell
Students compare cell structure to the structure of a city. For this cell structure lesson, students investigate differences and similarities between cell structure and city structure. Students create a 3-dimensional, edible model of a...
Curated OER
The Cell
Tenth graders explore the parts of a cell. In pairs, classmates construct a model of a eukaryotic cell, detailing its morphology and function. With the use of computer technology, 10th graders create cell book for middle schoolers. ...
Curated OER
Cell 3: Organelles B
Students, after researching cells, construct a model cell. They explain the structure and function of eukaryotic organelles in a presentation. In addition, they create their own analogies to describe the structure and function of...
Curated OER
Cell Me What?
Students compare and contrast the characteristics of robots and cells. In this biology instructional activity, students examine the parts and function of cell organelles. They create a visual representation of their cell/robot analogy.
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
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
Yeast
Young scholars study the characteristics of yeasts. In this biology lesson, students conduct experiments to measure yeast respiration. They discuss the favorable conditions needed for growing them.
Curated OER
The Wonders of Bacteria
Young scholars explore the evolution and features of bacteria through a series of activities. In this biology lesson plan, students collect data and graph bacterial growth. They design a brochure about bacteria's role in society.
Curated OER
Glucose
Learners conduct various experiments on glucose. In this biology instructional activity, students differentiate the process of diffusion and osmosis. They test different foods for the presence of glucose and starch.
