Let's start today's lesson by revisiting the Cells & Organelles worksheet.
This time it is for marks, so work carefully.
Attention! Attention! This is not a drill, people - this is the real deal!! 😁

Now that you have been reintroduced to both the plant and animal cells, let's see if you can communicate your understanding of the structure, function and relationship of the cells' parts through the use of an anology.

Assignment
🠞 Choose a type of cell 🠆 plant cell or animal cell.
🠞 Choose something to which to compare your cell. (For instance, "An animal cell is like a factory." This is your analogy.
🠞 Choose eight (8) organelles from the list below and create an analogy for each one. The analogy should "match" or parallel the actual function and make sense within your analogy as a whole.
- cell membrane
- cytoplasm
- mitochondria
- ribosomes
- endoplasmic reticulum
- vesicles
- Golgi bodies
- nucleus
- vacuoles
- cytoskeleton
- cell wall
- chloroplasts
- vesicle
🠞 Create a "poster." This can be done on a regular sheet of paper. The poster should include:
- the title, "A __________ cell is like a __________."
- drawings of the analogies for the eight (8) parts that you choose. You must do the drawings yourself. I do not expect you to be an artist. Use coloured pens/pencils/markers/etc if you have them.
- a brief description of the actual function of the organelle.
- an explanation of the relationship between the organelle and the analogy that you chose.
🠞 The project is due any day you are school from Feb 8-11. Plan your time wisely, as I will not accept late projects.

Grading Rubric:
Notice that this project is out of a lot of marks. This is a great way to give yourself a mark boost to start this class out on a positive vibe. 👊👏💪😆
