4. Have the students hypothesize about what image might be.
5. Explain to them that the image on the right is an animal cell and the image on the left
is a plant cell.
6. Ask if they see anything inside each cell and hypothesize what they might be.
7. Explain that today they will be learning what the difference is between an animal cell
and a plant cell. They will also be learning about the organelles inside each cell and
what its function is.

The teacher will help to clear any misconceptions about animal and plant cells.
Some may be that all cells are the same size and shape, plants are not made of cells,
and that some living parts of organisms are not made of cells.
Explore This student-centered station lab is set up so students can begin to explore animal

opportunities to learning new information about animal and plant cells and four of the stations are

facilitator Students will be working in pairs to better understand plant and animal cells. Students
will be comparing two diagrams of plant and animal cells and will try to identify the
differences and similarities. Students will follow the steps and record their observations
on their lab sheet.
 WATCH IT!
At this station, students will be watching a short video explaining plant and animal
cells. Students will then answer questions related to the video and record their answers
on their lab station sheet. For example: What is the function of the cell wall in plant
cells? What is the function of chloroplasts in plant cells? How are the vacuoles different
in plant and animal cells?

RESEARCH IT!
The research station will allow students to explore an interactive web page that allows
students to click to obtain information about the organelles that are in plant and animal
cells. Students will be instructed to complete a few tasks and record answers on their
lab sheets.
READ IT!
This station will provide students with a one page reading about Plant and animal cells.
In the reading, students will understand how they are both similar and different. There
are 4 follow-up questions that the students will answer to show reading comprehension
of the subject.

 ASSESS IT!
The assess it station is where students will go to prove mastery over the concepts they
learned in the lab.  The questions are set up in a standardized format with multiple
choice answers.  Some questions include: Which organelle is only found in plant cells?
What is the function of the nucleus in plant and animal cells? Which structure allows
gases and nutrients in and out of cells? What is the function of the vacuole in plant
cells?

WRITE IT!
Students who can answer open-ended questions about the lab truly understand the
concepts that are being taught.  At this station, the students will be answering three
task cards: Which two organelles can be found in plant cells that aren’t found in animal
cells? Describe what each of them does. How do you know that plant and animal cells
are eukaryotic? What is the function of the mitochondria in cells?

ILLUSTRATE IT!
Your visual students will love this station. Students will label and describe the 3 main
differences between a plant cell compared to the animal cell.

ORGANIZE IT!
The organize it station allows your students to lock in the organelles found in cells and
match them up with their correct functions. Students will then identify if the organelle
belongs to animals, plants, or both. Once students have completed their organization,
the teacher will come and check their understanding.

Estimated Class Time for the Exploration: 1-2

knowledge)
Choose one of the projects listed below to present in your class. Each project
should demonstrates your understanding of the different structure and function in plant
and animal cell organelles. Make sure to include cell membrane, cell wall, nucleus,
cytoplasm, mitochondria, chloroplast and vacuole

Bulletin board – create a bulletin board for your classroom. Be sure to demonstrate
your understanding of the difference between the structure and function of cell
organelles in plants and animal cell. Do not forget to include the organelles listed
above.

Prezi – create a prezi to present to your younger siblings science class. Be sure to
demonstrate your understanding of the difference between the structure and function of
cell organelles in plants and animal cell. Do not forget to included the organelles listed
above.

Model – Create a model of both plant and animal cells showing the difference between
the structure and function of organelles. Be sure to include the organelles listed above.
Be creative with your model. Think outside the box.

Video – create a video to show at parent’s night. Your video should demonstrate your
understanding of showing the difference between the structure and function of
organelles. Be sure to include the organelles listed above. Be creative! show off your
skill.

Estimated Class Time for the Elaboration: 2-3
