If you haven’t already, break out the microscopes! Sketch slides. Some of my students maintain sketch notebooks. Look at the plethora of cell activities from Biology Corner. One cell standard is Cell City or Cell Analogy. Here is a through description of the Cell City Analogy. Make it a project. My neighbor, Rahimah, used a soccer stadium for her analogy. Scroll images on Pinterest or Google for ideas. I like the iPhone analogy. My kids do make Cell Models; however, not edible models. I have had too many oozing, jello models. Yuck. Clay models are absolutely fine. Kids learn the organelles when they make models. Try the Cell Membrane Bubble lab. It’s a favorite! Get going!
