5th Grade Master Spelling List
Here's a spelling program that includes 36 lists of 21 words and 20 suggestions for weekly activities. Each list includes common and proper nouns, sight words, academic vocabulary, and words built on a specific Greek roots.
Curated OER
Transport
A multiple-choice quiz about the transport of substances between cells, this would work well as a pretest and/or post-test. It refers to chapter seven of an unnamed textbook, but it is a Word document, so it can easily be edited.

The Ratio of Surface Area to Volume
Demonstrate the ratio of surface area to volume in your high school class by using phenolphthalein, gelatin, and an onion. Intrigue the class by leading a discussion on osmosis and diffusion, then making "scientific jello." Participants...
Curated OER
Homeostasis and Cell Transport
In this homeostasis worksheet, students complete a crossword puzzle with 22 question on homeostasis and cell transport. They identify the different ways substances are transported in and out of the cell.
Curated OER
Diffusion Across a Selectively Permeable Membrane
Students investigate how water passes through cell membranes. In this biology lesson, students differentiate osmosis and diffusion. They illustrate the movement of water in both processes.
Curated OER
Cellular Transport
In this cellular transport activity, high schoolers review the process of osmosis and compare passive transport and active transport. This activity has 12 matching questions.
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
Acting Potential
Students set up a cell membrane with the material provided by their teacher and then arrange beads properly to show how the sodium and potassium ions are arranged. They then make a model representing the axon of a neuron.
Curated OER
Osmosis and Diffusion: Egg Lab
Learners examine why diffusion and osmosis happen in an egg cell. In this diffusion lesson students demonstrate a semi permeable membrane.
Curated OER
Active Transport in Malpighian Tubules
Young scholars examine the energy dependence of active transport as well as te properties of specificity, competition, saturation, and inhibition. They anesthetize an insect and inject saline into the abdomen.
Curated OER
Vocab Chapter Seven: Transport
A note-taking resource for the topic of transport between cells. If formatting is important to you, there are some slight changes you'll need to make to this Word document to make it consistent.
Curated OER
Active Transport
In this active transport learning exercise, students review the cellular process of active transport including the structures and functions of the cell organelles involved. This learning exercise has 28 fill in the blank statements.

Cell-abrate!
Lights, camera, action! With the cell at center stage, guide your seventh grade biologists through the tiny drama that plays out within every living thing. Then, enjoy the show as they portray the organelles they've studied—a performance...
Curated OER
An Egg-cellent Osmosis Experiment
Students investigate the problem of osmosis by conducting an experiment. They use eggs with the shells dissolved to tell whether fluid can move across the membranes. The experiment provides high interest for all kinds of students to keep...
Curated OER
Cell Structure And Function
In this biology worksheet, learners respond to 13 multiple choice questions related to cell structure and function. They identify which are microfilamets and which have a cell wall. Students also describe what chloroplasts are and their...
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
Homeostasis and the Plasma Membrane
In this homeostasis and plasma membrane worksheet, 9th graders identify and solve 11 different vocabulary terms and definitions. They review the definitions of the words listed and then use the clues to complete the puzzle shown....
Curated OER
The Plasma Membrane
In this plasma membrane worksheet, students will explore how cells are able to maintain homeostasis and the function of the plasma membrane. This worksheet has 6 fill in the blank and 7 true or false questions.
Curated OER
Cell Transport
In this biology worksheet, 9th graders describe what osmosis is and how it explains the fact tat a watery syrup forms when you put sugar on strawberries. Then they describe how proteins made by ribosomes leave the cell. Students also...
Curated OER
The Krebs Cycle and Electron Transport
A three-page, mostly multiple choice quiz that would work great as a pretest/post-test for the topic of cellular respiration. It also includes diagram interpretation and a couple of short-answer written response questions. Depending on...
Curated OER
Energy, Matter, and Organization
Tenth graders review the Energy, Matter, and Organization unit. They have one week to complete an essay. Students must submit a concept map or drawing. The activity is introduces by reading a short story line which presents a simple...
Curated OER
Final Exam Practice - General Biology
A 17-page practice final exam for a college-level introductory biology course is contained in this resource. Matching and short answer questions cover every topic that you would expect to teach during an advanced biology course including...
Curated OER
The Cell Theory
In this cells worksheet, students review how the cell theory was developed. Students review the structure and function of cell structures and active transport. This worksheet has 30 fill in the blank questions.
