Students Create a Cell Structures and Functions PowerPoint
Students research the internet for information about various plant and animal cell structures and their functions. Students explain the similarities and differences between plant and animal cells. Students choose three of the following cell structures to research: cell wall, cell membrane, cytoplasm, vacuoles, chloroplasts, and nucleus.
Students collect several images relevant to the various cell structures. Students create an informative and interesting 5 - 6 slide PowerPoint presentation using their images and research information.
