Introduction

• This unit is designed to provide information
  about the cell.
• Students will be given a brief history of the
  cell.
• The students will obtain the knowledge of the
  structure of a cell.
• Students will also learn the many functions of
  the cell organelles.

3
Analyze Learners

• Age level for this unit is 15-16.
• Students should be on a 10th grade science level.
• The students should have the knowledge of the 9th
  grade objectives.

4
Analyze Learners (cont.)

• The students will retain the information through
  the following processes.
• Reading from textbook that will be assigned
• Worksheets that also serve as a study guide
• In-class activities (Jell-O activity)
• Experiments (active and passive transport lab)
• Use of computers to provide the students with
  additional information and animations

5
Content Standard Objectives

• West Virginia CSOs http//wvde.state.wv.us/
• SC.10.2.5 Conduct explorations in a variety of
  environments (e.g. laboratories, museums,
  libraries, parks, and other outdoor locations.)
• SC.10.4.2 Identify and explain the structure and
  function of cell organelles (e.g., Golgi bodies,
  endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria,
  chloroplasts, ribosomes, lysosomes, vacuoles.)

6
CSOs (cont.)

• SC.10.4.4 Identify mechanisms for the movement
  of materials into and out of cells (e.g., active
  and passive transport, endo-and exocytosis).
• Tec.9-12.5.1 Use a variety of strategies to
  acquire information from electronic resources.
• Tec.9-12.4.1 Use telecommunications and online
  resources for the purpose of commuting with
  audience inside and outside of the classroom.

Websites

• http//sasinschools.com This website was used to
  prepare me for the unit.
• http//cellbio.utmb.edu/cellbio/ Students are to
  use this website to gain additional information
  about organelles and their functions.
• http//www.hhmi.org/biointeractive/ This site is
  to be used to see an animation of active and
  passive transport.
• http//cellsalive.com CellsAlive provides the
  students with detailed pictures of cells and more
  animations.

Utilize Media Material

• Day One I will introduce the unit plan topic
  The Cell. I will give a historical look of the
  aspects of the cell. I will begin to discuss
  (very generally) the structure of a cell. I will
  show students the interactive bulletin board,
  which they may use test their knowledge. I will
  give a homework reading assignment from the
  textbook and a fill-in-the blank worksheet, on
  the section that covers the structure and
  functions of a cell. I will then go over the
  Flo-Chart that will provide the students with an
  outline of animal, plant, and bacterial cells.

Utilize Media Material

• Day Two I will go over the answers to the
  fill-in-the-blank worksheet and take them up. I
  will then spend some time talking about the
  different organelles of plant, animal, and
  bacterial cells. I will give the class the
  Comparing Plant and Animal Cells worksheet.
  Student will be expected to use the diagrams from
  the textbook to fill the worksheet at home. I
  will then start the lecture of the different
  functions that organelles have. I will discuss
  how organelles are alike to a manufacturing job
  and provide specific examples.

11
Utilize Media Materials

• Day Three I will take up the Comparing Plant
  and Animal Cells worksheet and give a short quiz
  on questions 1-4. After the quiz I will further
  discuss the functions of different organelles in
  the cell. I will then introduce the first
  project. Project The students are to develop
  their own unique manufacturing plan on how the
  organelles function within the cell. This
  project will be due on day 6 of the unit.
• Day Four Answer questions students may have that
  pertain to the Manufacturing Project. On
  computers students will go to the website
  http//cellbio.utmb.edu/cellbio/. We will further
  discuss the functions of different organelles in
  the cell. We will talk about the different
  organelles and their functions that are found in
  plant, animal, and bacterial cells.

12
Utilize Media Material

• Day Five Activity Jell-O Model of a Cell
  (Re-teach/Practice)
• Day Six Students will present their
  Manufacturing Project to the class in the form of
  a 2-minute oral presentation. I will lecture on
  active and passive transport. I will show the
  demonstration of an animation of active and
  passive transport at http//www.hhmi.org/biointera
  ctive/. This site allows students to see an
  animation of active and passive transport.
• Day Seven The class will do an active and
  passive transport lab. Students will be expected
  to turn in lab sheet before the unit test on day
  nine.

13
Utilize Media Materials

• Day Eight We will review all the objectives
  covered in this unit. We will discuss the
  activities and projects. Review all worksheets,
  study guides, and handouts. I will use a
  Jeopardy format game for review. Study guide
  will be a combination of all the handouts and
  lecture notes given during the unit. Students
  will be divided into teams and a chance for bonus
  points.
• Day Nine Students will take a test, which
  covers all objectives from the Cell Unit.

14
Require Learner Participation

• Some ways that I can keep students interested
  are by being excited about the unit myself. If
  the students see that I am excited and interested
  in the subject, this may make them more curious
  about the unit. The students will also stay
  interested because they will be doing hands-on
  activities. Students will not be required to sit
  and listen to lecture the entire time, making it
  more likely that the learners will participate.

15
Evaluate and Revise

• Students will be evaluated in several ways
• Worksheets
• Individual assignments
• Quiz
• Project
• Lab
• Test
