*** Cell Model Projects are DUE MONDAY!!! ***
Today students continued to study for their Midterm Exam (November 15th.)
Dispatch: How are plant and animal cells different? (Review Assignment 43, 47)
Today's dispatch was taken from the midterm study guide (Question 16)
We discussed how plants and animal cells have different structures, such as plan cells containing cell walls, vacuoles, and chloroplasts. This allows plants to have a rigid structure, as well as to produce food from the sun's energy.
Animal cells only have a cell membrane, and they have centrioles to help in mitosis. They are consumers so they rely on their mitochondria to process food into energy.
Students then created a checklist for assignment 55 - Cell Project Checklist. This was the final check before Monday's Due Date.
Finally for assignment 54 - Pyramid Stack Review #2 we played the pyramid stack with another 2 or more sets of review subjects. Students had to explain why they stacked them the way they did.
Most classes had a few minute of P.A.T. where we did a competition with the pyramid stacking as a silent team building activity.
