Seventh graders analyze and identify the role of the cell membrane and nucleus. They create flash cards to help them review cell structures. They also compare plant and animal cells.

Middle schoolers review the components of a cell and the differences between plant and animal cells by creating a three-dimensional model of each type of cell. In small groups, they use modeling clay and household object to construct...

For this cells worksheet, students review cell organelles and their functions plus the different processes that take place within cells. This worksheet has 9 matching and 5 true or false questions.

In this cells worksheet, students review different types of cells including their different functions and shapes. This worksheet has 6 matching and 3 short answer questions.

Students research both plant and animal cell characteristics. They draw the parts of each cell and as groups present their research.

Sixth graders analyze and compare a cell's tissues, organs and organ systems. They watch a video reviewing the body systems and design poster boards showing their functions.

Introducing exponential equations means learners need to take all the rules and tricks they learned for exponents and actually apply them. This presentation comes to the rescue by touching on changing bases in exponential...

In this cell division worksheet, students answer 13 multiple choice questions based on the process of mitosis and meiosis. Included are questions about the stages of cell division as well as the structures involved.

All that this will link you to is a rap about cell theory and organelles. Use it as an example for a creative assignment in your biology class. Divide the class into groups and assign them a topic for which they write and perform a skit,...

Cells divide by one of two processes, either mitosis or meiosis. Scholars sort cards into two sets, one representing each type of cell division. Then, they sequence the cards demonstrating an understanding of the movement of chromosomes.

Students discuss the different stages of mitosis. For this biology lesson, students work in pairs as they draw and diagram the stages of cell division. They discuss reproduction using pro, meta, ana and telophase.

In this algebra instructional activity, mathematicians identify important vocabulary related to solving equations. They create and simplify expressions and solve word problems. There are a total of 10 questions that provide a good review...

In this cell cycle worksheet, students review how enzymes control the cell cycle and what happens when the cell cycle becomes uncontrolled. This worksheet has 7 short answer questions.

Students investigate osmotic balance in living cells. In this osmotic balance lesson plan, students use elodea leaves to study the effects of salt solutions on the cell. They compare the changes in an elodea leaf with salt water on it to...

Learners identify the purpose of cellular mitosis. They work in groups of four to use images of animal and plant cell mitosis to illustrate each step in the mitosis process on their graphic organizer.

In this cells activity, students will review vocabulary words and information relating to the structure and function of plant and animal cells. This activity has 10 crossword puzzle questions, 6 multiple choice, 4 short answer questions,...

Seventh graders examine different transplant types and estimate the possible outcomes.  In this biology lesson students discuss donors and transplants then divide into groups and complete a worksheet.

In this cells worksheet, students will review cell characteristics and structure and different types of cells and what role they play in the body. Students will investigate experimental results of the influence of sucrose on the...

In this cell division worksheet, students answer 15 multiple choice questions about both mitosis and meiosis. Topics include the outcomes of the processes, the phases of the processes and steps within each process.

Wow! A very detailed slideshow covers complex topics of genome research methods. This is advanced and relevant to the highest level of school biology. Excellent resource if you wish to expose your class to scientific methods and...

Put your heart into it. Scholars design and build replacements for mitral heart valves. Obviously, they can't test their creations on a real heart, so a box with marbles (to represent blood cells) will suffice.

Learners come to understand vocabulary words through pantomime. In this vocabulary lesson, students first review several vocabulary words and their meaning, then they work in groups to pantomime the definitions.

High schoolers review what they can recall about viruses. They are explained that they are going to work on a project in which they suggest a useful purpose of a virus. Students use print research materials and the Internet to add to...

Learners investigate how cells determine which genes will be expressed and which will be silent. In this genetics lesson plan, students use on-line resources to complete a worksheet and gather information about gene regulation. Lesson...
