In this 10 minute video Paul Andersen discusses cell communication. He begins by explaining how he communicates with other individuals using various forms of electronic communication. Included in this resource are a worksheet and full transcript of the video.

Transcript added from YouTube subtitles. You can use this to write your own worksheet or quiz.

Students will explore different components of the cell membrane using the online Genetic Science Learning Center. Students will view pictures, read passages, and watch videos to complete a worksheet.

Science Instructional Plans (SIPs) help teachers align instruction with the Science Standards of Learning (SOL) by providing examples of how the content and the scientific and engineering practices found in the SOL and curriculum framework can be presented to students in the classroom.

Insert channels in a membrane and see what happens. See how different types of channels allow particles to move through the membrane.

A one page assignment that uses online tutorials to give students a first exposure to the components of a cell and membrane.

Students present charades or play Pictionary representing the characteristics of different organelles. Student responses (their guesses for the charades) are recorded via a google form...thus everyone is involved and responsible for making individual guesses.

Living things must move materials into, out of, and within the cell. Substances can move across the cell membrane passively (i.e., osmosis and diffusion) or actively (i.e., active transport). This module focuses on the two types of cellular transport and assumes knowledge of cell membrane (components and functions, ie. Fluid Mosaic Model) has already been addressed. This module was developed by Teresa Ballou as part of a Virginia Commonwealth University STEM initiative sponsored by the Virginia Department of Education.
