Week of 10/25

On Monday and Tuesday, students spent time working on a "Cell Analogy Project." In this project, students had to find pictures that represented analogies of the important cell organelles. In doing this, the students were able to make connections about how organelles function like everyday objects. We also had the chance to observe cheek and onion cells under the microscope in order to view a few differences between plant and animal cells.

We have finished our microscope and cell chapter, so we will be taking our second chapter test on Monday of next week. Students have been given a study guide in order to help them prepare. Remember, students should not have to go back to the textbook in order to study! As long as they review the notes listed on the study guide, they will be in good shape for the test.
