Learning Objectives:
Students to draw and label various parts of an animal / plant cell
Students to explain the functions of various organelles
Students to identify the differences between an animal cell and a plant cell
Learning Flow:
Teacher provides a tutorial on SLS to explain
- Different features of the app
- How to screen-record on iPad (with microphone enabled)
Students have fun exploring the app and learning about various organelles
Students are to demonstrate their learning by identifying differences between an animal VS plant cell, they can choose to do so by:
- Making a drawing on any sketch-noting tool / Keynote
- Making a screen-recording of the app with voiceover explanation
Students submit their work via SLS / Google Classroom
Students can comment on each others’ work and post questions
Teacher can challenge students to think further (and address misconceptions as well), by asking questions such as:
- Do all plant cells have chloroplasts? Give reasons why
- Why do plant cells have cell wall?
- Are there any types of cell that have specialised organelles? (e.g. root hair cell, or sperm cell)
Teacher can provide feedback to students’ work via comment function on SLS / Google Classroom
