3. Cells and Organelles
October 30, 2017

4. Objective
SWBAT: compare the organelles of cells and understand their roles

5. Connection
We learned in physical science that atoms are the building blocks of all matter. Today we are going to learn about cells, which are known as the building blocks of life.
This marks the beginning of our life science unit!

6. Cell Theory – 3 Parts
All living organisms are composed of one or more cells.
The cell is the basic unit of structure and organization in organisms.
Cells arise from pre-existing cells.

7. Cells Cells are the building blocks of life
They are defined as the most basic structural, functional, and biological unit of all living organisms
Cells have parts, called organelles, that all do specific jobs for the cell to keep it alive

8. Check for Understanding
What are cells?
What is the first part of cell theory?
What is the second part of cell theory?
What is the third part of cell theory?
What do we call the parts of a cell?

9. Cell Organelles – Partner Work
Use your laptop and the websites posted on Edmodo to fill in the chart about cell organelles.
Think about how each organelle must be important… “would a cell be able to survive without this organelle?”
You may work with a partner if you would like, but you need to be seated at a desk!

10. Cell Organelles – Individual Work
Put your laptop away and go back to your seat.
Write your paragraph on the back of your worksheet sentences.
We know that all organelles are important, but what if you were a cell and could only choose three organelles to have?
What organelles would you choose and why?
