The Cell Analogy Project challenges students to deepen their understanding of cell organelles by comparing them to components of a chosen analogy. Through this assignment, students will employ their creativity and knowledge of cell biology to construct a comprehensive presentation using Google Slides, iPads, and Chromebooks. Both animal and plant cell rubrics (Word and PDF versions) and a PowerPoint/Google Slides sample setup are included. The project requires students to select ten of twelve s

This includes an editable PowerPoint Presentation, editable notes for the teacher, and editable and printable outline notes for the students. The PowerPoint is designed to provide a captivating learning experience to high school students on the topic of cell structures and their functions. It covers all the topics that one would expect to find in a traditional high school biology textbook, including the history of cells, the organelles of plant and animal cells, and more. The slides contain vis

This comprehensive PowerPoint presentation and note set offer an immersive exploration of cellular transport structures and their functions. It provides a thorough coverage of topics that are typically found in high school biology textbooks, including transport across membranes, passive transport, and active transport. Featuring visually stunning photos and diagrams that are expertly designed to captivate students, the PowerPoint presentation includes animations and transitions that allow educa

This project helps students introduce themselves during the first week or so of school to their new Biology teacher and incorporates life's characteristics into a student-centered 10-slide introduction project in a biology class. Students will create a 10-slide Google Slides or PowerPoint presentation that includes slides introducing their favorite place in the school district, their interests, hobbies, strengths, goals, and five of life's eight characteristics. Students will include personal im
