1. Monday 3 October Topic: A day in the life of a cell
DO NOW
What comes to mind when you hear the word ‘protein?’ Describe what functions you think they have in the body. Why do you think they’re necessary in a healthy body?
OBJECTIVE
Explain how at least 5 cell
organelles work together to
make and use proteins in your
body
TURN IN:
2 sheets – one of labeled cell parts, and one is the table of all the organelle functions
HW:
Rough draft due Wednesday: Detailed paragraph (typed or neatly written on separate paper)
Describe how the organelles in a cell work
together to make and use proteins. Include at
least 5 different organelles in your essay.
AGENDA
Day in the life of a cell!
You will get a ‘script’ afterwards which, combined with your notes, is all you need for the hw

2. Cytoplasm RNA Nucleus E.R. ATP A Day in the Life of The Cell Ribosome
Protein
Ribosome
RNA
Released into blood stream and used as hormone or other bodily structure
Golgi Apparatus
(Modifies and shapes the protein)
Protein being formed at Ribosome
Nucleus
Cytoplasm
Protein could go to membrane to be released into blood stream
DNA
(Holds genetic information)
RNA
(Copies genetic from DNA and carries it to the Ribosome to make proteins)
(“bubbles” that transport proteins)
Vesicles
(transports and packages proteins)
E.R.
Lysosome
::Blood Stream::
Cell Membrane
CO2 + H2O
ATP
(for the cell to use)
Ribosomes
Mitochondria
Cell Respiration
Glucose + O2

3. A Day in the Life of The Cell

4. Tuesday 4 October Topic: A day in the life of a cell
DO NOW
Where is DNA located and why?
How do ribosomes get their building information?
What contribution to protein production does the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) play?
OBJECTIVE
Explain how at least 5 cell
organelles work together to
make and use proteins in your
body (cont)

6. Cell analogies
With a partner, you are to come up with analogies for a minimum of 4 organelles of your choice
These analogies must compare the function of the organelle to a part of a city
E.g. a vesicle is like a mail truck because it picks up materials to deliver
You and your partner should write your analogy on the appropriate poster
Most creative wins!

8. Monday 3 October Topic: A day in the life of a cell
DO NOW
What grade do you think you’re earning so far AND WHY?
Be sure to mention how well you think you’ve done for each category (tests/quizzes = 40%, labs = 30%, hw/classwork = 15%, and citizenship = 15%)
OBJECTIVE
Organize all your work to improve your grade.
Focus on areas to improve upon for this particular class.
TURN IN:
Your lab & lab analysis questions if you didn’t already do so
HW:
Final draft due next time I see you: Detailed paragraph (typed or neatly written on separate paper)
Complete any missing assignments you may need to do
AGENDA
Progress reports
Letter-writing time

9. Progress Reports Grade is as of this morning
TUESDAY grades will get sent home
You have THIS PERIOD ONLY to complete or redo work and turn it in!
If something was SUPPOSED to have been done in your notebook, redo it on a separate sheet of paper to turn in today
If you have completed everything, there is an extra credit assignment
NC = the assignment is not complete and you still have the opportunity to redo it
You can retake the quest today during pd 5 or next Thurs only

10. Improving grades! Yay!
During this period, you are to be engaged in one of the following at any given time:
Completing any missing work
Writing your essay due Thursday
Completing the extra credit assignment
GOAL = to hear the music playing overhead
If the class volume is low enough to hear the music the whole period, you will earn a LOT of marbles for the jar!
Reminder that the prize is to snack while watching a movie
