Power Standard 3
B2.5g
B2.5i

Materials: Starter sheet (toughest biochem test questions), Biochem test, Materials for organelles, Organelle word map

Starter: Pass out the biochem test questions. These questions were the most commonly missed questions on the Biochem test from all 3 periods. I want them to do them using their notes and then we will go over them to make sure they have the write answers.

After the starter, pass back the tests and go over the answers. Let them know the answers to the table questions could have been found throughout the test (test taking strategy).

When we are done with the test we will continue yesterday's lesson by building a cell. I will have the students pick a random organelle out of a beaker. They are to find a structure with in the room that may represent their organelle. Then they need to build a cell as if it were on a diagram so the organelles need to be in the right spot. Hint: There are groups of organelles that need to work together (nucleus, nuclear envelope, nucleolus: ribosomes and er, etc...). The students also need to be prepared with the function of their organelle along with why they chose what they chose.

When we are done going through and discussing the cell that we constructed. Pass out the word map for the organelles and they are to complete it as homework.

Quiz tomorrow over organelles: tell them: organelle functions, label a diagram, and difference between a plant and animal cell.
