A Look Inside Cells


In Grade 8, students continue to develop their knowledge of organisms by focusing on the structure and function of cells in plants and animals.  In Stacey McGregor’s science class, students are to demonstrate an understanding of this by constructing a three-dimensional rendering showing the basic structure of a plant and animal cell.

Work on this culminating activity was completed this week, and the results were on display for anyone to have a look at.  And the results were truly amazing.

As the grade 8's are part of a science rotation, other students will have this opportunity presented to them as well, and if the first wave of projects is any indication, it would appear that this unit will be a continued success in terms of student achievement.
