1 Cell Project Menu Name: Please read over the menu of projects you may complete. Your assignment is to complete enough projects to give you a total of 75 points. You may pick any combination that you may wish. Some of the instructions are attached in this packet for individual projects. You must turn in this MENU sheet filled out on DUE date with your projects. Due Jan 7-8 Check Mark if you completed Possible Activity Cell City - In Cell City, you will design a colorful city that represents a cell. You will compare the parts of the city to the organelles of a plant cell. Decide what part of the city each organelle represents. On a piece of poster paper, draw the layout of your city in color and with labels. Go over all your labels in pen. Come up with a creative city name. Attach a piece of paper to your poster that explains why each part of the city represents a certain organelle (At least 10). Here is an example of a explanation sentence: The city hall represents the nucleus because it is the control center of the city. This is similar to a nucleus job, which is to control a cell. Keep in mind the part of the city s job should be similar to the job that the organelle does for the cell. An explanation of this should be included in your sentences. Build or Bake a Cell - For this project, you will build or bake a model using whatever materials you want to represent all the organelles in a plant cell. You must have an object or food item in your model represent every organelle in your cell. Pay attention to where they go in your model, what they look like, their size, etc. They should be representative of the real organelles in a cell (At least 10) Attach a piece of paper to your model explaining what item represents each organelle. Here is an example of an explanation sentence: The large cookie in the middle of my dish represents the nucleus because it is a large organelle in the middle of the cell. The nucleus is the control center of the cell and also stores DNA (which are the sprinkles on my cookie)! To demonstrate your knowledge of what the organelles DO, please include their function in your sentences. Create a 20 question test - Write 20 test quality questions about cells, their organelles, and their structures. You should have at least one question about every organelle and structure. Design a test that you and your classmates could take. Your test should include different types of questions (at least 3 of the following): multiple choice questions, true false questions, fill in the blank questions, Your test should be free of spelling errors and be ready to give to students. Turn in an answer key with your test. Write a Cell Rap/Poem/ or Song - Write a poem, rap, or song about a cell and all of its organelles. Your poem, rap, or song should include information about at least 10 cell organelles and structures and what they do in a cell. You will turn your rap/poem/ or song in on a piece of paper and will have the option to either perform your piece at Office Hours for your teacher or in front of the entire class. Your poem, rap, or song should rhyme!

3 Sell-a-Cell Billboard You will be creating a billboard advertising one of the different cell organelles we have discussed in class. The point of a billboard is to get people to purchase a product or a service. You will need to make your organelles seem worthy of being purchased. Your final product will need to be in billboard (poster) form. You should market your organelle as something besides a part of a cell. Think about its function and relate it to a product or a service that people could use in their lives. Things to include: The name of your product/service (should reference the name of the organelle) A picture of your product/service (some reference to its actual appearance in a cell) The selling Point of each organelle (This is like a creative description. Why would people want to buy this organelle?) This should be related to its actual function in a cell. It should be immediately clear what its function is. The price Neatness and use of color will also be part of your grade. You may do up to 3 posters 25 points per poster

Cell Storybook Congratulations! You have just been hired by Cytophile Press- Where Every Day is a Cell-ebration - to work in the children s book department. Your first assignment is to write and illustrate a storybook that explains ten organelles present in an animal or plant cell. Your book should be written so that an elementary student could understand the structure and function of each organelle. Remember to be creative! You could use a mystery format, a biography, or use the format of other children s books. In addition to writing and illustrating of the book, you should design the book cover, which should include the title and author/illustrator name. This assignment will be evaluated on the following scale: Use of ten organelles: 20 points Use of a story line (do not just state the functions)/ Creativity: 10 points Identification features of plant or animal cells: 5 points Function/structure of each organelle: 20 points Appropriate illustration to go along with the story line: 10 points Book Cover (with author/illustrator name): 10 points
