My Learning Object

Below I have created an interactive  and fun glog that functions as a class handout! This Learning Object will be used to supplement to our lesson on Plant and Animal Cells! We have been learning about the structures of both Plant and Animal Cells, but what are these structures functions? What are the difference between Plant and Animal Cells?! The poster below will provide you with the opportunity to explore these topics and develop an understanding of what the two cells are! The websites will provide you with an in depth look at the structures of two cells and what the different organelles DO. The various Youtube videos provide you with an opportunity to hear a fun perspective of what each cell is! The various links embedded within the interactive poster allow students to explore the topic at their own rate. With this element of agency, students are in charge of their learning. The glob is inclusive of images, links to websites as well as videos that appeal to a variety of learners. Enjoy your exploration! Do not forget to complete the Google Form!

  1. Great Interactive Poster Michelle! I can clearly see the curriculum connection in this learning tool. I believe that Grade 8 students would benefit from this tool, as they would be able to learn a great deal about animal and plant cells! The poster definitely grabs my attention and makes me want to learn more about cells! Good job embedding it on the proper page of your blog and also including a reflection statement!
