Cell Parts
What do a bird, an egg, a rabbit, and a toad all have in common? This fun-filled resource explains the similarities and differences between cells and how all cells are similar, yet all are different. Learners begin by depicting a...
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...

Cell Organelles
Young scientists take a trip into the microscopic world of cellular biology with this practice exercise. Given pictures of different organelles, learners must correctly identify specific parts of each cellular structure to demonstrate...
Curated OER
Cell Parts
Students identify parts of a cell. In this biology lesson, students create a simulated cell by using Jell-o, fruit roll ups, raisins, gum drops, and M&M's. Students construct the simulated cell and identify each part.
Curated OER
Cell City
Students understand how various cell parts function and how they are related to the genetic process by creating a model and symbol to depict the function of the cell parts. They research a cell part to determine function and then cut...
Biology Junction
Cellular Division
Based on current scientific knowledge, all cells come from preexisting cells. Scholars learn about cell division, cell replication, mitosis, meiosis, and more with a PowerPoint. It describes the differences between prokaryotes and...
Howard Hughes Medical Institute
Viral DNA Integration
How do viruses hijack our cells to produce more viral particles? Junior immunologists model how viral RNA integrates into a host cell's DNA using pop beads and use interactive tools to explore a virus' genome. The teacher's guide...
Curated OER
Plant and Animal Cells
Students investigate parts of a cell. In this plant cell instructional activity, students determine the difference between plant and animal cells. Students discover that coral is an animal based on cell characteristics. Students create...

Cells: Nature's Building Blocks
What you will find on this page is the general outline of a unit on the use of a microscope and the structure of the cell. There is no actual educational content here, so you will need to design the details of each of the four student...

Life Cycle - Human Biology
In this life cycle worksheet, 9th graders complete 3 different procedures that distinguish viruses and bacteria and inherited characteristics. First, they read the background excerpt given about bacteria and viruses. Then, students cut...

MAKING THREE DIMENSIONAL PLANT AND ANIMAL CELLS
Students create two different cells, one plant and one animal. In this plant and animal cell activity students form groups and construct a part of a cell. Students then put them all together to form one plant or animal cell.Â
Curated OER
Homeostasis and the Plasma Membrane
In this homeostasis and the plasma membrane worksheet, students complete a flow chart and 5 questions related to homeostasis and the plasma membrane. They complete a flow chart that illustrates the plasma membrane and cellular transport....
Curated OER
Cell Cycle
In this cell cycle activity, 7th graders study the various images of the cell cycle. Students then label each picture with the correct cycle. Students then answer several questions about the cell cycle.

How HIV Infects Cells
In this biology worksheet, students answer 2 short answer questions related to HIV based on information provided. They color and label the different parts of a virus.
Curated OER
Cell 7 Plant v Animal Cells
Students differentiate between plant and animal cells. They identify the structures central to plant cells. They complete a Venn Diagram listing the differences between animal and plant cells.
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...

EGG MAZE: COUNTING BY TWOS, THREES AND FIVES
Students successfully count by twos, threes and fives, using pictures of eggs and poultry as points of interest. They orally review the types of counting (twos, threes, or fives). Students are introduced the idea of a dozen eggs.
