What are we learning???
SCI.5.S5L2 Students will recognize that offspring can resemble parents in inherited traits and learned behaviors. Element: SCI.5.S5L2.a Compare and contrast the characteristics of learned behaviors and of inherited traits. Element: SCI.5.S5L2.bDiscuss what a gene is and the role genes play in the transfer of traits.
SCI.5.S5L3 Students will diagram and label parts of various cells (plant, animal, single-celled, multi-celled). Element: SCI.5.S5L3.a Use magnifiers such as microscopes or hand lenses to observe cells and their structure.
Element: SCI.5.S5L3.b Identify parts of a plant cell (membrane, wall, cytoplasm, nucleus, chloroplasts) and of an animal cell (membrane, cytoplasm, and nucleus) and determine the function of the parts.Element: SCI.5.S5L3.c Explain how cells in multi-celled organisms are similar and different in structure and function to single-celled organisms. SCI.5.S5L4 Students will relate how microorganisms benefit or harm larger organisms. Element: SCI.5.S5L4.a Identify beneficial microorganisms and explain why they are beneficial. Element: SCI.5.S5L4.b Identify harmful microorganisms and explain why they are harmful.

The Cell: An Image Library™ is a freely accessible, easy-to-search, public repository of reviewed and annotated images, videos, and animations of cells from a variety of organisms, showcasing cell architecture, intracellular functionalities, and both normal and abnormal processes. The purpose of this database is to advance research, education, and training, with the ultimate goal of improving human health. http://www.cellimagelibrary.org/ |
You HAVE to check this out! Use the horizontal slide bar just below the image to learn about cell size and scale!!! http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/cells/scale/ |
Welcome to "Excell" At Cells. We think that cells are "excellent". We hope that when you are through with this site you will be a cell "cellebrity". There are fun experiments along with facts to make your brain cells "excell." We hope you enjoy this site so much that you'll want to "cellebrate."

CellCraft is a state of the art game that invites students to delve into the world of the cell, learning about how a cell functions while helping it survive in hostile environments. The student will gain an understanding of important molecules such as glucose and ATP, as well as a variety of cellular organelles, while going through an entertaining story guided by Platypus scientists in need of help. The game encourages students to balance resources and grow a robust cell in order to fight off cold, starvation, and viruses. Can you use your cellular knowledge to grow a super cell and save the Platypus species? Find out by mastering the art of CELLCRAFT!

SHRINKY DINK CELLS - HOMEMADE!
You must do this with an adult. Check out this link for how to make these cool cells from #6 recycled plastic at home. REMEMBER TO HOLE PUNCH BEFORE YOU SHRINK THESE! Use recycled salad boxes made of #6 plastic. ALSO - trace the cool cells in your ISN! REMEMBER TO PUNCH A HOLE IN THE PLASTIC BEFORE YOU BAKE IT!!! http://www.education.com/activity/article/Shrinky_Dink_Science_middle/ |
