This week Monday (and possibly Tuesday) we will use this model as we debate the "life status" of an object. The next day we will watch some videos about the history of the Cell Theory. This well-known scientific theory will be the foundation that we will use as we develop our own cellular model! Wednesday and Thursday (or Thursday and Friday) we will be using the microscopes to investigate cells and use these experiences to develop our model of what cells are, what they look like, and what parts they have.
If we finish all this work early, we'll get started on our next goal: Develop and use a model to describe the function of a cell as a whole, and the ways parts of cells contribute to the function.
Homework:
Week of 3/2 - no homework!
