11/1

Students have gotten right into our new chapter of Cell Processes. On Monday, students identified various ways that molecules transport through a cell membrane and how that can be beneficial to a cell.
Starting on Tuesday students started to design their own lab in groups.  I gave them materials (our fake cell is a gummy bear) and told them that their lab needed to have a question or problem about osmosis.  I have been very impressed with the various types of labs that students came up with.  Students initiated the actual lab on Thursday and viewed their results today.  Overall, I think students were very impressed with how their labs turned out!
Next week, students will explore cellular respiration and photosynthesis!
