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.
