September 10th-11th
This week students have been working hard on the children's book for the PBL. They are coming along great! I look forward to seeing them all next Friday or Monday.
Thursday and Friday I got out the microscopes and students looked at three different types of cells: onion, Elodea, and human cheek. They drew and labeled them in their journals, compared and contrasted plant and animal cells, and they discovered that an onion cell does not have chloroplasts like an Elodea cell? Do you know why?
This is what they saw and drew.
Onion Cell
Elodea Cell
Cheek Cell
They have colored diagrams, seen real cells under a microscope and completed riddles, an organizer, and vocabulary on cell organelles. They are ready for a quiz on Monday September 14th. Go to Canvas under assignments: lots of review materials.

September 3rd
For the next few weeks students are writing a children's book on the structure and function of cells. Students will write original stories and draw original illustrations. The books will be shared in class and the class will vote on the best ones. Then as a class period all science classes will go to the LGI on September 23rd and share these books together. Awards will be presented for most original story, best art work and many more. The award winning books will then be presented to the students at Griffin Elementary School and donated to their classroom libraries.
This is the first PBL of the school year. Students chose their own team members and are already in full swing creating and brainstorming on their books! I look forward to reading them!
These are great examples to look at for children's book style and flow.
