1 Cell Project Name: DUE Date: Project Choices 1. Cell Board Game 2. Cell Model 3. Cell Song 4. Children s Book 5. Original Project Created by Student Project Summaries 1. Cell Board Game Design a board game in which players travel through either a plant or animal cell by traveling from organelle to a finish line. The board game must have questions that need to be answered in order for the player to advance spaces. Or design a board game in which players travel around a board answering questions while picking up organelles to complete their paper cell model. Many different versions of a board game can be created with this project choice. The final product will be photocopied and played by the class D Cell Model You will create a 3-D model of a plant or animal cell. Depict the various cell parts/organelles in your model using materials that relate to or are analogous to their function. Although this may not be possible with every organelle of the cell, you will be surprised how many you can come up with given a little creativity. The cell must have depth (3-D). You structure analogy cell must relate to a common theme (like things you would find in a factory). You will present your model to the class. 3. Cell Song You will rewrite the lyrics to a popular appropriate song of your choice. The new lyrics must incorporate the cell organelles and their functions. The new lyrics need to be appropriate and flow with the original music (meaning stay in tune with how the original artist performed it). Your song must be performed to the music either in front of the class, or prerecorded and played for the class. 4. Children s Book You have been hired by a children s book company to produce a children s book about cells. The topic of your book is to introduce all of the characters (organelles) of either a plant or animal cell, and how the characters work in the cell from day to day. Remember that the book is for children and it must be colorful and exciting. You can make a hard copy of your book that I will photocopy for your presentation to the class or an electronic copy can be submitted that must be printed and put together to share. 5. Original Project Created by Student If a student has another creative idea to display their knowledge of a plant /animal cell, the student may discuss this with the teacher in order to agree upon an acceptable grading rubric. DO NOT create your own project without teacher approval.

2 Cell Board Game Design a board game in which players travel through either a plant or animal cell by traveling from organelle to a finish line. The board game must have questions that need to be answered in order for the player to advance spaces. Or design a board game in which players travel around a board answering questions while picking up organelles to complete their paper cell model. Many different versions of a board game can be created with this project choice. The final product will be photocopied and played by the class. The following organelles MUST be drawn into the game and recognizable: mitochondrion, Golgi body, rough ER, nucleus, centrioles, Chloroplast, Ribosome, cell membrane, vacuole and lysosome. The game MUST incorporate 30 question cards. An answer sheet must be incorporated into the game. The game MUST have a list of rules and/or instructions as to how to play the game fairly. Make the game challenging but fun. 5 The board should be colorful, neat, and organized. The game is creative. 5 Game pieces should be included. The game has a thematic title. 5 The game MUST be at least the size of an open file folder. 5 Played by the class or a group with in the class. 30 s Earned

3 3-D Cell Model You will create a 3-D model of a plant or animal cell. Depict the various cell parts/organelles in your model using materials that relate to or are analogous to their function. Although this may not be possible with every organelle of the cell, you will be surprised how many you can come up with given a little creativity. The cell must have depth (3-D). You structure analogy cell must relate to a common theme (like things you would find in a factory). You will present your model to the class. The following organelles MUST be incorporated into the animal cell: cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, mitochondria, Golgi body, rough ER (free and attached), Smooth ER, nucleus, nucleolus, centrioles, cell membrane, vacuole and lysosome. The following organelles MUST be incorporated into the Plant cell: cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, mitochondria, Golgi body, rough ER (free and attached), Smooth ER, nucleus, nucleolus, cell membrane, Cell wall, vacuole and lysosome. The cell must be 3-D. The plant cell must be rectangular in shape and the animal cell must be circular in shape. All parts of the cell must be labeled clearly. Labels can be in the form of little flags or stickers. Either the part name must be written on the label or letter labels can be used with a key provided. Your representations of the organelles must be similar to the functions of the organelles; for example a battery could take the place of the mitochondrion. Be unique and creative in the design. The structure analogy will be themed; for example, things found in a kitchen. A typed chart of each organelle and its function must accompany the model. Class presentation. s Earned

4 Cell Song You will rewrite the lyrics to a popular appropriate song of your choice. The new lyrics must incorporate the cell organelles and their functions. The new lyrics need to be appropriate and flow with the original music (meaning stay in tune with how the original artist performed it). Your song must be performed to the music either in front of the class, or prerecorded and played for the class. The following organelles MUST be described by structure and function in the song: cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, mitochondria, Golgi body, rough ER, ribosomes, nucleus, nucleolus, centrioles, cell membrane, vacuole and lysosome. Lyrics match up with musical beats, measures and breaks. Lyrics are appropriate for school and in tune with the original artist that performed it. Do not force rhyme or fit words where they don t belong. Lyrics are typed. Bold all of the cell organelles in the lyrics. The section referred to as the chorus is italicized. The chorus should be a repeatable verse. Song tempo is fast, fun, and catchy. Music accompanies song lyrics. Performed for the class. 40 s Earned

5 Children s Book You have been hired by a children s book company to produce a children s book about cells. The topic of your book is to introduce all of the characters (organelles) of either a plant or animal cell, and how the characters work in the cell from day to day. Remember that the book is for children and it must be colorful and exciting. You can make a hard copy of your book that I will photocopy for your presentation to the class or an electronic copy can be submitted that must be printed and put together to share. s Earned The following organelles MUST be drawn into the children s book and recognizable: mitochondria/chloroplast, Golgi body, rough ER, ribosomes, nucleus, cell membrane, vacuole and lysosome. Each character MUST have a description of their work that is done in the cell from day today. The children s book should appeal to a young audience. The 5 young reader will be able to follow the story. Make the story creative and appropriate for a child. 5 The story is from the perspective of a main character that you 5 chose. The setting is in either and animal or a plant cell. 5 The character should encounter a problem in the story. The book has a cover with the book s title, a colorful illustration, and the author s name. The book need to be at least pages long. Each page should have a colorful illustration to go with the story. The story is neatly written or typed. Class presentation.
