Cell Model Project

CELL MODEL PROJECT
Creating a cell model project using recyclable or biodegradable materials is not only an
educational experience but also an environmentally responsible one. Below, I've provided guidelines
and a rubric to help you create a cell model project with these materials.
Guidelines for Creating a Recyclable or Biodegradable Cell Model:
Materials:
1. Recyclable or biodegradable materials: Use materials like paper, cardboard, biodegradable clay,
and natural items like leaves and twigs or food items like noodles, veggies etc.
2. A base for the model: Use a recyclable material like a cardboard box or a wooden board or plate.
3. Non-toxic glue, paste, or other adhesives.
4. Markers, paints, or colored pencils for labeling and coloring.
5. Reference materials: Books, websites, or resources to help in cell structure understanding.
Steps:
1. Research: Learn about the type of cell they're modeling (animal, plant, etc.) and its components.
You should understand the function of each organelle. You may use your knowledge gained
from our discussion.
2. Design: Plan the layout of you model and how you ill represent each organelle using recyclable
or biodegradable materials.
3. Build: In this step, you will construct the cell model according to your design. You should use
recyclable or biodegradable materials exclusively. This is where their creativity can shine.
4. Label: Ensure that you label each organelle in the cell model. The labels can be made from paper
or cardboard, using clear and neat handwriting.
5. Document you work through taking pictures or video while doing the model.
6. Explain: Explain the function of each organelle to your teacher. Do it through recoding your
video.
7. Edit your video to have a one file for doing the model and explaining its function.
Rubric for Evaluating Recyclable or Biodegradable Cell Models:
Creativity (20 %)
 5 points: The model is highly creative, and the student used a variety of materials effectively.
 4 points: The model shows creativity, and most materials are used thoughtfully.
 3 points: The model lacks creativity and is somewhat generic in its representation.
 2 points: The model is basic and unoriginal in its design.
 1 point: Little to no creativity is evident in the model.
Accuracy (20 %)
 5 points: The model accurately represents the cell type chosen and its organelles.
 4 points: The model is mostly accurate but has minor inaccuracies.
 3 points: The model has several inaccuracies in organelle representation.
 2 points: The model lacks substantial accuracy in cell structure.
 1 point: The model is entirely inaccurate and does not represent a cell.
Use of Recyclable/Biodegradable Materials (20% )
 5 points: All materials used in the model are either recyclable or biodegradable.
 4 points: Most materials used are recyclable or biodegradable.
 3 points: About half of the materials are recyclable or biodegradable.
 2 points: A few materials used are recyclable or biodegradable.
 1 point: Most materials used are not recyclable or biodegradable.
Labels and Presentation (20 %)
 5 points: Labels are clear, neat, and correctly placed. The model is well-organized.
 4 points: Labels are mostly clear, and the model is organized.
 3 points: Labels are somewhat unclear, and the model lacks organization.
 2 points: Labels are unclear or disorganized.
 1 point: Labels are missing or extremely unclear.
Oral Presentation through recorded video (20 %)
 5 points: The student presents the cell model confidently, demonstrating in-depth knowledge.
 4 points: The student presents the model with confidence but lacks some depth of knowledge.
 3 points: The presentation is somewhat timid, with limited knowledge displayed.
 2 points: The student struggles to present the model and shows minimal understanding.
 1 point: The student is unable to present the model effectively.
Total: 100 points
Submit only the video on or before November 6, 2023 at a google drive o be created by your teacher.
