1.Introduce Projects – 10 min
tTest Corrections/Review – 20 min
/Sketch and Label the Plant Cell – 30 min
Cell Projects
1.Analogy Collage:
Draw a typical plant or animal cell on a small (6" X 8") piece of
drawing paper.
Paste the drawing in the center of a large sheet of construction
paper or a small poster.
Draw pointers or arrows from the cell structures leading to
pictures cut from magazines or newspapers.
Write a functional analogy expressed in the your own words
that describes the relationship between the picture and cell
structure.
For example: If you had an arrow pointing from the Golgi Apparatus to
a picture of a UPS truck, your analogy could be written like this: “The
Golgi Apparatus packages and transports organelles like UPS
packages and transports computers for Dell.”
Cell Projects
1.Rap or Song:
Using the information that you’ve learned about animal and
plant cells, create a rap or song.
You can rap or sing about many topics including:
an organelle and its function
the differences between organelles
the similarities between organelles
or any other APPROVED topic
Your rap or song must have at least two verses and a hook
(or chorus). You can have more than two verses if you
would like. I don’t won’t to limit your creativity.
Raps and Songs cannot include any explicit lyrics. In other words,
NO CURSING.
Cell Projects
1.Poem:
Using the information that you’ve learned about animal
and plant cells, create a poem.
Your poem must be at least be 10 lines (or verses).
Refer to the topics list in #2.
2.Mini-Essay:
Using the information that you’ve learned about animal
and plant cells, write a mini-essay
The essay must be at least three paragraphs, and
each paragraph must have at least five sentences.
Refer to the topics list in #2.
Test Corrections
Use your notes to correct the problems that are marked
incorrect on your test.
You may work in groups or collaborate to make test
corrections.
Test corrections must be turned in by the end of today!!
By turning in test corrections, you will earn up to10
percentage points to your score!!
We will review the correct responses on Wednesday
during class time.
Today’s Objectives
I will identify the organelles in plant and animal
cells.
I will articulate the function of organelles in
plant and animal cells.
Sketching the Plant Cell
You will sketch a drawing of the plant cell on the next
slide.
You will label the following organelles:
Vacuole, Mitochondria, Chloroplast, Ribosomes
Golgi Apparatus, Endoplasmic Reticulum
Plasma Membrane (same as Cell Membrane)
Nucleus, Nucleolus, Cytoplasm
Peroxisome (similar to a lysosome)
On a separate sheet of paper, you will use your notes to
create a chart, listing the function of each organelle.
