In this biology activity, students label 9 diagrams with the correct names. They also write short answers to 6 questions that follow.

Learners observe the cells of an onion by wet mounting it and viewing it in a microscope.  In this hands on lesson students make their own wet mount slide of an onion and are able to identify the cells in it such as, the nucleus,...

In this cell activity, students identify the function of 4 different parts of a cell, complete 4 word connections, and complete a word puzzle about cells.

In this biology worksheet, students construct a model of a plant or animal cell using edible materials that will remain fresh at least three days. They identify and label each part to include various organelles as listed. Students also...

Students observe the similarities and differences between plant and animal cells. In this cell activity, students use microscopes to observe self prepared slides of animal and plant cells.

Learners explore the parts of the cell. In this cell lesson, students use foods to create cell models that represent the nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, mitochondria, ribosomes, vacuoles, endoplasmic reticulum, and Golgi bodies...

Even though the presentation is connected to a particular textbook, it could be used in any lower elementary classroom to review plants. There are diagrams and colorful graphics that make it attractive and engaging.

An exciting activity has scholars use cell parts to build bacteria through cooperation with other groups. Each group has some of the cell parts needed, but they must trade with other groups to be able to fulfill their function as a...

Students examine how traits are passed to offspring.  In this genetic reproduction lesson students develop a model of dna and learn about its structure, replication and function.

All types of transport systems in a dicotyledon plant are detailed here, with clear labelled diagrams and notes for the specific structures and functions. The way that these systems have adapted, and how support is assisted by the...

Students explain how cells reproduce. In this biology lesson, students transcribe and translate a gene. They discuss and compare their answers in class.

In this cell comparison worksheet, students complete a table in which they compare the cell parts and organelles of plants and animals. They answer 4 short answer questions based on the information in the table.

In this biology activity, students chart and compare the observations made about a cell and the school building of a classroom. The inferences about cells are based upon textbook information.

In this science graphic organizer worksheet, students fill in a Venn Diagram by comparing plant and animal cells. They use the words from the word bank to fill in each portion of the graphic organizer. They use words such as...

Quite a detailed and advanced look at the transport mechanisms of a plant. The absorption and control of sugar and water concentration are explained and will help an understanding of homeostasis concepts and organ specialization.

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.

In this biology learning exercise, students locate and identify various vocabulary terms relating to cells and microscopes listed on the right. There are 26 biology terms located in the word search.

In this labeling a cross-section of a Bacterium cell learning exercise, students use the glossary of Bacterium cell terms to help identify and label each cell part. Students label nine parts of the Bacterium cell.

In this comparing plant cells and animal cells worksheet, students view cells from their cheeks and cells from elodea. A Venn diagram reveals similarities and differences between the cells.

Students explore the parts of a cell. They identify the structures of plant and animal cells. Students explain the functions of plant and animal cells. They compare and contrast animal cells to plant cells. Students create a model of the...

Students recognize that all living things are made up of cell and that they cannot easily be seen by the naked eye. Students become familiar with the use of microscopes as a tool for investigation.

Students identify the parts of plant and animal cells, how samples can be obtained and what the differences are.

Young scholars review the structure and fuctions of plant and animal cells. They use various types of materials such as sugar cookies and cake frosting for this lesson.

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.
