Eukaryotic Cells and Organelles

To develop a teaching tool for a 7th grade teacher to teach about

Goal plant and animal cells.
You have been hired by an educational media company to design
Role products for use in classrooms.
7th grade students of different math, reading, and problem solving
Audience abilities. Remember that 7th grade students like to be actively
engaged in learning. They don’t just want a color sheet.
You may work with another designer, but each must submit a
Situation written summary of what they each contributed to the project.
The teaching tool must include an animal cell and a plant cell. The
cells must show the details of organelles of each type of cell. The
Product function of each organelle must be identified.
DCPS 19 Draw and label the main organelles in a typical plant
cell and a typical animal cell.
Standards DCPS 20 Identify the function of each organelle in plant and
animal cells.
