Writing Assignments | |||||
Write a story where you describe the inner workings of a cell in a fictional setting. Make it accessible to younger children. Example: you can talk about visiting the library (DNA in the nucleus), watching the workers at the power plant (mitochondria), etc. This set of Quizlet flashcards or this PDF can help you come up with analogies. This PDF called a busy factory might also be helpful (you may need a subscription to Scribd.com to view – click this link to get 2 months for free). | |||||

Some additional diffusion activities are listed in Ellen McHenry’s Cell Curriculum for chapter 3 in the teacher’s section. I’ve scheduled chapter 3 for week 7, so you can those activities then as a refresher, or you can do them this week. | |||||

The links for the Cell Command Game and Cell Defense Game are not working.
Thanks for reporting all of the broken links! You are awesome!! I’ll get them fixed up asap! 🙂
In the writing assignment the last PDF Busy factory does not work.
Thank you so much for letting us know! I was able to find that PDF at a different location and linked to it. 🙂
The link for build a cell membrane paper model just goes to a viewable only page of preview; no examples or printable pages.
The link is at the Internet Archive. It won’t display the full PDF unless you access it on a desktop computer. For some reason tablets and phones don’t work and only show the first page (or part of the first page). You may want to try loading it via a desktop and see if you still have issues. I was able to access it just fine. We really appreciate you posting about it, though! Please don’t be shy if you run into any other links that don’t work properly! 🙂
