Cell Organelles
Young scientists take a trip into the microscopic world of cellular biology with this practice exercise. Given pictures of different organelles, students must correctly identify specific parts of each cellular structure to demonstrate...
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
Cell Parts
Students identify parts of a cell. For this biology lesson, students create a simulated cell by using Jell-o, fruit roll ups, raisins, gum drops, and M&M's. Students construct the simulated cell and identify each part.

The Way We Were: Embryological Development and Disease
Students use microscopes to study live fish embryos and animated diagrams of cell division on the Internet. They see that scientists rely on technology to enhance the gathering and manipulation of data. They create web pages on cloning.
Curated OER
Community Cell
Students explore parts and functions of the cell, and create models of assigned organelles.
Curated OER
Organizing Organs
Fifth graders research plant and animals cells and create a Venn Diagram to show the similarities and differences.
Curated OER
Cell City
Young scholars understand how various cell parts function and how they are related to the genetic process by creating a model and symbol to depict the function of the cell parts. They research a cell part to determine function and then...
