This week students explored the differences between
prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Not
only did we discuss them in class, students were able to visualize the
differences in a short observation lab.
Next, students took a deeper look into the eukaryotic cell (i.e. plant cell,
animal cell, etc.) and the organelles that enable them to work
efficiently. Students have started to
think of ways to compare these organelles to structures or items that they are more
familiar with in their everyday lives.
Below I have posted a picture of the extra effort one the 7th
graders put forth. He compared each
organelle to a part of a city in the form of a Lego city.
All students will use their creative sides to develop their own analogies for each organelle in the Cell Analogy Project that we start next Thursday.
Have a great weekend!
