I typed in the requirements for the lesson plans below. Work together here in the wiki. Consider using the "discussion" tab to "talk" to one another about the construction of this page. Working collaboratively is important, I want to see both "teachers" working together using their own skills to design the best lab possible. If you ever need feedback from me during the week, email me and let me know what specifically you want help on, and I'll come here, take a look, and type my feedback direction on the page.

Activity Topic:
=Teacher Description Sheet=

The lab is intended to give a introductory to complex look into the similarities and differences in prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells. The lab can be given in three ways. A pre-lab question sheet will be conducted before starting the lab. The first way uses microscopes and slides. This is intended for a AP classroom, because viewing the specimens is difficult and requires experience with the microscope. The second and third version of the lab is intended for a general education classroom, lower level classroom and even a special education classroom. In the second lab the eukaryotes and prokaryotes are projected on the screen as a simple unmarked diagram of each cell and different groups can distguish the differences between them. In the third version the students are handed a bag of edible ingredients to build edible basic models of the types of cells. At the end of the lab a question sheet will be handed out and the students will be instructed as to why the understanding of these cells is important. Pre-lab 5min, Overview 10 min, Lab 10min, Discussion 5-10min
 * Overview and Purpose:**

Depends on the type of classroom this lab is preformed in. Overall the students should be able to recognize that prokaryotes are much simplier than eukaryotes but they are still considered cells. Students should also be able to recognize the differences and similarities depending on the depth in which the teacher chooses. They should also be able to decipher a question and see which cell it refers to (prokaryote or a eukaryote). Students should also be able to recognize how these cells are relevant to their life and others.
 * Student Objectives**

Basic to Advanced once again it depends on which lab the teacher chooses.
 * Inquiry Level**

11.A.4a Formulate hypotheses referencing prior research and knowledge 11.A.5a " " 11.A.4e Formulate alternative hypotheses to explain unexpected results 11.B.4b Propose and compare different soultion designs to the design problem based upon given constraints including available tools, materials, and time. 11.B.5c Buld and test different models or simulations of he design solution using suitable materials, tools, and technology.
 * Standards**

1. projecter 2. computer 3. powerpoint 4. prepared slides 5. microscope 6. Twinkies 7. Suzy Qs 8. Twizzlers 9. assorted candies 10.sprinkles 11. plastic knife 12. plastic bags
 * Materials List**

1. Construct a powerpoint discussing the differences and similarities between prokaryotes and eukaryotes with pictures. 2. Prepare a hand-out with Pre-Lab questions, Procedure, Discussion questions, and Post Lab debrief in power point. 3. Prepare ziploc bags with the correct amount of materials. 4. Put either a twinkie or suzy q in a bag. 5. Prepare sprinkles, multiple hard candy, twizzlers, candy fruit slices, and a knife in each bag 1. Student must wash hands before and after the lab. 2. When using the plastic knife hold it firmly, cut away from you and if you goof off with the knife your lab is over. 3. Most of all have fun with the lab:)

Teacher answer key: (Best to upload the Word doc to Google Docs, and make a link. Hint, design the student lab first, do teacher key last.)
