Group Activities
Group Activity 1 - PowerPoint Presentation
As a group, you will be making a PowerPoint presentation on the cell. Each group will pick 4 organelles and will make a PowerPoint slide for each organelle. The slides need to include information about what each organelle is supposed to do. There should also be a picture of the organelle. The first thing you should put in the slide is the information THEN you can worry about the pictures and slide layout. I will grade on information and anything else is just "icing on the cake."
Group Activity 2 - Cell Model
As a group, you will have to make a plant cell out of modeling clay. This assignment will be done in the classroom after the PowerPoint presentations have been completed. The worksheet for required cell organelles will be provided in class. It is very important that you take time and special care when handling the modeling clay. Be a good group member and do not just be an observer.
