students research blood's components, and use their math skills to recreate a model of whole blood using commonly found food items.

Students use a hands-on activity which enhance their understanding of the 3-D characteristics of cells while reinforcing their knowledge of plant and animal cell structure.

Seventh graders use technology to review cell structure and function. In this cells less, 7th graders review the parts and functions of a cell, and use photography/video and PowerPoint to enhance their explorations.

Students observe the reaction of living cells to mechanical and chemical stimuli by introducing different stimuli to an organism under a microscope and recording the response.

In this cell instructional activity, students read a short passage about simple cells or ground cells found in stems and leaves of plants. Students then answer four questions about the text.

In this animal cell structure worksheet, students draw an animal cell. Kids then draw and label all of the cell parts listed in the word box. Students identify each part by coloring it the color in indicated in the box.

Learners draw a diagram to show the fluid mosaic model of a membrane. They explain how hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties help membranes hold their shape. They identify the functions of different cell membrane proteins as well.

Seventh graders use the Internet to gather information about a disease. They also discuss in groups how diseases are a worldwide problem and brainstorm ideas they can help. They create an informational packet on the disease they researched.
