Cells in the Making
Students examine and research the parts of a cell, their functions, and life processes. They simulate how cells receive nutrients using coffee filters, water, and coffee, and construct cells using pudding, cookie dough, and candy.
Curated OER
Cell Types
Fourth graders create cartoon characters which compare and contrast two types of cells: nerve and muscle. Cartoon characters show how these two cells are similar, how they are different, and the relationship between the two cell types.
Curated OER
Edible Cells
Eighth graders construct edible models of a plant cell and an animal cell and state the functions of the organelles. They are to write a short sentence describing the function of each organelle.
Curated OER
Cells
Students research both plant and animal cell characteristics. They draw the parts of each cell and as groups present their research.
Curated OER
Stem Cell Bioethics
Students study the steps of embryonic development. They distinguish between the advantages/disadvantages of embryonic stem cells vs. adult stem cells and discuss the ethical implications of stem cell research.
Curated OER
Practice with Plant and Animal Cells
Students work in small groups to match cell vocabulary terms to the appropriate cell part in a photograph. They use a draw program to sketch a plant and animal cell.
Curated OER
Cell Reproduction
In this cell reproduction worksheet, students will review the 5 phases of the cell cycle: telophase, interphase, prophase, metaphase, and anaphase. Students will use the cell cycle diagram to complete 5 short answer questions.

Plant and Animal Cells
Students investigate the difference between plant and animal cells. They observe a variety o plant and animals cells by looking at a piece of cork, an onion, elodea, prepared slides of paramecium, human bone, frog blood, and human...
Curated OER
Cell Structure and Function
Students identify the main ideas of different cell theories. Using a microscope, they compare and contrast the structures and functions of prokaryotes and eukaryotes. They also compare and contrast animal and plant cells and complete...
Curated OER
A Cell Is Like A City
Pupils create analogies that help them remember the cell parts as well as their respective functions.
Curated OER
Why Are Cells So Small?
Students examine the relationship between cell surface area and the ability of materials to diffuse through a cell. They participate in an experiment in which they determine which materials diffuse easier than others. They complete...
Curated OER
Cell Division and Mitosis
Learners identify each phase of mitosis and the main characteristics of each. Students prepare a microscope slide with onion root tip. Learners observe the cell division occurring in the cells and label the mitosis phases observed.
Curated OER
Comparing a Cell to a Factory
In this cell instructional activity, students access a given website to compare the cell organelles and their functions to jobs in a factory. This instructional activity is a graphic organizer.
Curated OER
Are Fruits And Vegetables Really Made of Cells?
High schoolers design and carry out an exercise to determine if a given fruit or vegetable is composed of cells. They dissect out sections of the fruit or vegetable, prepare stained slides, and make observations under a compound microscope.
Curated OER
Orienting a Photovoltaic Cell
Students explore the optimum angle for orienting a solar collector relative to the rays of incoming sunlight. They review equinoxes, solstices, and various locational ideas before students investigate using meters, light sources, and...
Curated OER
Cells Brochure
Students examine the structure and functions of an animal or plant cell. They view an online video about cells, conduct Internet research on the Brain Pop website, and create an informational brochure about cell structure and functions.
Curated OER
Cells: The Units of Life
In this biology worksheet on cells, 9th graders name who the first person was to use the word cell and describe in what materials this person saw cells. Then they determine what instrument uses light and two or more lenses to view cells.
Curated OER
Stem Cells and Cloning
Learners discuss an article on cloning and stem cells and complete an Internet cloning activity. In this genetic engineering lesson, students analyze stem cell issues by reading an article and participating in a class discussion. They...

A Cell-a-bration
Students identify the different types of animal and plant cells. In this cell lesson plan students label the different cells and their functions.
Curated OER
Cytoskeleton of a Cell
Students examine the cytoskeleton of a cell. They work together to build a structure with a certain number of materials. They share their "cell" with their classmates.
Curated OER
Lesson Plan: The Cell- A Historical Perspective
Learners discover the impact the invention of the microscope had on scientific discovery as well as the concept of spontaneous generation and the cell theory. Students examine these scientific concepts through a WebQuest and by viewing a...
