Curated OER
Cell Factory
Students examine the basic structures and functions of cells. They design and construct a factory cell model where each factory part corresponds to a cell part.
Curated OER
Parts of the Cell
High schoolers examine plant and animal cells to observe the organelles present in the cell, to match the function of each to the organelle on a cell model and to build a model of the plant or animal cell.
Curated OER
Constructing a Cell
Third graders, in groups, make a model of a plant or animal cells and represent each of the organelles in the cell.
Curated OER
Community Cell
Students explore parts and functions of the cell, and create models of assigned organelles.
Curated OER
Cell Size and Division or How Big Would You Want To Be if You Were a Cell?
Young scholars investigate why cells divide. In this cell size lesson plan, students observe how far a solution travels into 3 different size model cells of agar. They answer questions about the most effect movement of "nutrients" into...
Curated OER
Cells All Around
Students measure the size of an epithelial cell and to estimate the number of epithelial cells in a given area of the body. After watching a video on cells, student groups perform an experiment using a microscope to view some of their...
Curated OER
Cell Energy - Bubbling Yeast
Young scholars identify that yeast are a single celled fungi that are a great model organism for studying respiration in the classroom. They also fill the bulb of a disposable pipet (eyedropper) with yeast, then submerge the pipet in a...
Curated OER
Memorable Cell Membrane
Students investigate the components of a cell membrane. In this cell membrane lesson plan, students build a cell membrane model using toothpicks and candy to represent the parts of the membrane including the phospholipid bilayer and the...
Alabama Learning Exchange
Edible Cell
Students identify cell parts and their function. In this animal cell lesson, students view a video clip and discuss cell components. Students create an edible replica of an animal cell using food items.
Curated OER
The Building Blocks of Life: Cell Building
Students view a short video from www.unitedstreaming.com. They then construct parts of a cell by building a model of an animal and plant cell using regular household materials.
Curated OER
Reebops a Model "Organism" for Teaching Genetics Concepts
Reebops are cute, marshmallow-based creatures that can be used to teach inheritance. Beginning biologists draw strips of paper that represent chromosomes from two envelopes, one for the father, and one for the mother. Each parent...
Curated OER
Solar Cell Simulation
Pupils study photovoltaic technology. For this photovoltaic technology lesson, students simulate a photovoltaic system. Pupils discuss how to simulate a cloudy day.
Cornell University
Investigating and Modeling Hardness
Model hardness testing with a self-designed hardness test. Young scholars rate the hardness of different types of aspirin using the Vicker's Hardness scale. They then relate hardness to the solubility of each aspirin tablet.
Curated OER
Eukaryotic Animal Cell, Candy Cell Model: Science
Students review the parts of the eukaryotic animal cell and construct a model using various types of candy.
Curated OER
Cell Project
Learners view a video of various cells and organelles. They create a 3-dimensional representation of a cell (complete with organelles) out of everyday objects that function in the same way as the various parts of the cell.
Baylor College
What Is a Neuron?
Your class won't get on your nerves while doing this modeling activity! After teaching the structure and function of a neuron using the included diagrams, give individuals some clay and chenille stems so that they can make their own...
Curated OER
Series or Parallel?
Emerging electricians extend mental models of light bulbs and resistors in series and or in parallel circuits to include the connection of photovoltaic cells in arrays. They investigate open circuits, using a DC voltmeter, a light...
Curated OER
DNA, the Awesome Thread of Life
Students examine how traits are passed to offspring. For this genetic reproduction lesson students develop a model of dna and learn about its structure, replication and function.
Curated OER
Living Organisms All Around Us
Sixth graders study organisms that exist in the world and what they are made up of. They participate in a nature walk, a presentation, a drawing of an animal and plant cell, draw a ecosystem, and fill out a Punnett square.
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
Stem Cell Development
Like a fresh canvas, stem cells can turn into almost anything. In a comprehensive lesson, high school biologists use clay to build a 3-D model of cell division and the processes that occur during the first 14 days of development. Also...
University of Minnesota
Neurotransmission Model
Don't lose your marbles — you'll need them for a lesson plan on neurotransmission. Young scholars build a neurotransmission model using marbles, beads, rubber bands, string, and other elements. After studying specific neurotransmitters,...
Curated OER
Teaching About Plate Tectonics and Faulting Using Foam Models
Young scientists learn about plate tectonics and the three different types of faults (normal, reverse, and strike-slip) using foam models. The activity also covers common types of locations where these faults are found.
Virginia Department of Education
Building a DNA Model
It has been decades since the discovery of DNA. Still, activities such building this DNA model allow blossoming scientists to better understand the components that form this overall structure. During this activity, they will also...
