Free 11th Grade Describe The Structure And Function Of Major And Subcellular Organelles Lesson Plan (General Biology)

Topic: describe the structure and function of major and subcellular organelles

Objectives & Outcomes

• Students will be able to describe the structure and function of major and subcellular organelles.

Materials

• Diagrams of major and subcellular organelles
• Handouts with questions about the structure and function of organelles

Warm-up

• Ask students if they have heard of organelles and if they know what they are.
• Discuss the role of organelles in the cell and what they do.

Direct Instruction

• Show the images of the organelles and discuss their structure, including their name and the materials they are made of.
• Discuss the function of each organelle, using examples from the text to illustrate their role in the cell.
• Ask students to volunteer any additional information about the organelles.

Guided Practice

• Divide the class into small groups and give each group a handout with images of organelles to identify.
• Have each group present their findings to the class, discussing the structure and function of each organelle.

Independent Practice

• Give students a worksheet with a diagram of a cell and instructed them to identify and label each major and sub-cellular organelle.
• Have students complete the worksheet independently and turn it in for grading.

Closure:

• Have students share their understanding of the structure and function of major and sub-cellular organelles.
• Review the major and sub-cellular organelles and discuss the importance of each organelle to cell function.

Assessment:

• Observation of students' participation and understanding during the guided and independent practice activities.
• Completion and accuracy of the diagrammatic representation of the major and sub-cellular organelles.
• Completion and accuracy of the description of the structure and function of the major and sub-cellular organelles.
