Students visualize plant and animal cells, explain the parts of a cell and their functions and distinguish plant cells from animal cells. Working Students, in groups, must present a particular portion of a cell to the entire class.

Students create three-dimensional cell models. They may choose to make either a plant or animal cell but must use a Ziploc bag as the cell membrane, slime for the cytoplasm, and strawberry baskets for the cell wall if making a plant...

For this plant parts worksheet, students read for information and demonstrate comprehension. In this true and false, fill in the blank, short answer, and multiple choice worksheet, students answer ten questions.

For this biology worksheet, students read about the parts of both plant and animal cells and examine cell diagrams. They read about the function of cell parts before answering 11 online fill in the blank questions.

Study everything about plants! The 12-part series of lessons continues with an examination of many aspects of plants. Components of the laboratory activity address the growth and structure of plants by evaluating familiar plants. The...

You know you taught it, but did they learn it!?! A quick formative assessment asks pupils to describe both photosynthesis and cellular respiration before showing how they relate to each other. The lesson marks the 20th lesson in a...

Learners explore plant and animal cells. Using household items, students create a three-dimensional model of a plant or animal cell. Learners identify and label each cell part.

Learners study plant and animal cell components.  In this cell lesson students identify parts of a cell, view a PowerPoint presentation and diagram a cell. 

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.

Students participate in a lab experiment to observe and measure the opening and closing of stomata. They focus on photoperiod, locate and identify stomata on a leaf and explain the role of stomata in the daily functioning of a plant.

Young scholars create two different cells, one plant and one animal.  In this plant and animal cell lesson students form groups and construct a part of a cell. Young scholars then put them all together to form one plant or animal...

Liken a cell and its organelles to a tiny person and its organs. After gathering information on cell structures and their functions, small groups collaborate to come up with an analogy of their own. They produce a collage describing the...

In this cell structure learning exercise, students review the structure and function of eukaryotic cells. Students also compare and contrast an animal cell with a plant cell. This learning exercise has 15 fill in the blank, 8 true or...

Students use the internet to research information about cells in order to create a 3-D model of a cell. They may choose either to research a plant or animal cell. Students locate and identify the parts of a cell and build a 3-D mode.

In this biology worksheet, students read about the parts of plant seeds and look at a seed diagram. They read about the roots, endosperm, embryo, and the process of germination. They answer 8 online multiple choice questions based on the...

Fifth graders gather information about plant cells. As they read in their science book about plant cells, they take notes on the important facts. Then, they look at their notes and organize them into an outline before they write their...

Introduce students to cells, and their many parts in this biology presentation. Students see that plant and animal cells have many of the same type of structures, but also have many differences as well. They will be challenged to state...

Beginning biologists demonstrate their grasp on cellular respiration, photosynthesis, and energy flow though ecosystems when completing this worksheet. Fifteen multiple choice and short answer questions test their knowledge. Because of...

Fifth graders examine plant and animal cells. In this plant and animal cell lesson, 5th graders define what cells are, label their parts, and describe how plant and animal cells are different. They observe cells at a number of web sites,...

Students create model cells using gelatin, toothpicks, and various fruits to represent organelles. Then, students observe their models and complete a Venn Diagram comparing and contrasting plant and animal cells.
