Lesson Plans

Name Description
Eukaryotic Cells: The Factories of Life

Students will be able to identify the main parts of a cell and to describe the basic function of each part. The students will match parts of a cell to parts of a city that have functions that are analogous to each cell part. They will then develop their own analogy and present it to the class. Finally, they will practice their knowledge using a computer-based review game.

Social Cells

This is an interactive activity for the students to learn about the different types of cells and which cell parts exist in them. It will develop the students' ability to identify similarities and differences between the various types of cells by engaging all three learning styles: visual, auditory, and tactile.

Spirillum, Dandelions, and Koalas, OH MY!

This lesson allows students to create a science center display showing their knowledge of the general structures of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and the structures and functions for the components of plant and animal cells. At the end of this lesson, students will be assessed by participating in a gallery walk that displays their design for a local science center.

This lesson is a STEM project-based learning opportunity.

Cell Structure

This lesson will cover the cell structures of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

How are Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells Alike and Different?

This lesson will help students to understand the structural differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Students will independently read to gain background knowledge of the two types of cells. The class will be divided into groups to complete a poster that compares and contrasts prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Touring the Cell

In this lesson the students will provide detailed explanations of cell structures and their functions, produce an artifact that highlights how prokaryote and eukaryote cells differ, how plant and animal cells differ, and how structure relates to function. Students will also design and conduct a lab exploring cells and/or their structures.

Prokaryote and Eukaryote Microscope Activity

This activity incorporates the use of microscopes to show actual cells that are examples of both eukaryotes and prokaryotes.

Animal vs. Plant & Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic Cells

This lesson will develop students' ability to identify similarities and differences between animal and plant cells as well as prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

Building and Identifying Cells

These activities were designed to help students recognize which organelles belong in plant and animal cells, as well as to differentiate between real-life examples of plant, animal, and prokaryotic cells.
