Today's Sub Plan



For today:

First

Students need to watch the following clip: DO THIS AS A CLASS
https://www.khanacademy.org/science/biology/developmental-biology/development-and-differentiation/v/somatic-germ-cells

Next

Students will use the chrome books to find images of the following cell types:

Muscle cell, neuron, red blood cell, intestinal epithelial cell, taste receptor cell, macrophage

Obtain a piece of white paper (there is a stack on my desk)  and fold it so that you have 6 different boxes on one side.

In each box sketch out one of the assigned cells  then color it (at least 3 different colors) to show details specific to those cells. Label each cell with it's various parts (ex. for a neuron you would label the axon, dendrites and myelin sheath) then label each box with the cell type illustrated.

feel free to use my coloring supplies up front

Put your name on the back and hand it in before leaving 

Homework - start this in class if you have time! DNA coloring sheets!
