Edible Plant/ Animal Cell Models

In class Monday, students chose which type of cell they want to make. Then students drew a picture that has all the required parts, making sure to label the picture with both the correct name and what type of candy they will use to model it with.

All models will be due Friday November (4). After the models have been graded, students will be responsible for "disposing" of them properly.

If you have any questions, post them here on the blog. For sample ideas, visit past student work.

Remember the criteria for what your model MUST have.

Plants                                                          Animals
cell wall                                              
cell membrane                                              cell Membrane
1- nucleus                                                     1-nucleus
cytoplasm                                                     cytoplasm
1-vacuole                                                      1- vacuole
1- Golgi body                                               1- Golgi body
4- chloroplasts                                              3- lysosomes
1- endoplasmic reticulum                              1-endoplasmic reticulum
3- mitiochondrion                                         3-mitochondrion
10 ribosomes                                              10-ribosomes                                                                                             
Watch a video that was created last year for how to assemble the project. Just don't use whipping cream. It melts VERY quickly. We found that out last year.

Good luck!
