Eukaryotic Cell Project

Choose one of the following project menu options to work on with your team. Be prepared to provide your second and third choice of project. The rubric that will be used to grade the finished product is also included to guide you in completing your project. The project will be due in class on Monday, October 20 and pre-checked on October 17, Friday. Options 1 and 2 Create a 3-D model of a Eukaryotic Cell belonging to a Plant (option 1) or Animal (option 2). Length and height are not shorter than 8. Depth is not shorter than .5. Your model must include all of the basic parts of the cell you choose as well as all organelles. In addition, you must label or provide a key to all parts and organelles so that they are clearly identifiable. You
Critical thinking and creativity are required Options 3 and 4 Design and create a movie (option 3) or cartoon storyboard (option 4) that depicts the adventures of an explorer inside a cell. Choose one of the two types of Eukaryotic Cells Plant or Animal. Your storyboard should be illustrated using color and should be presented on posterboard. In addition to illustrations, you need to include detailed descriptions of what is going on in each picture. You can be creative but remember that you must focus on how the cell parts and organelle function as your explorer experiences or interacts with them. Creativity and humor are encouraged Options 5 and 6 Design a travel brochure that describes a cell as though it were a large exhibit, attraction, an amusement park, cruise ship, or any other self-contained location with lots to do and lots of activities going on inside. Choose one of the two major types of Eukaryotic Cells Plant (option 5)or Animal (option 6). You must create an analogy for all of the parts and organelles found in the cell type that you choose, making sure that your analogies are relevant to the location. (Example If a cell is like an amusement park, then the nucleus might be the park
It is strongly suggested that you stick a label to identify the organelle you are depicting in the song/dance. If you decide to make more than one scene/act, provide a way to communicate this to the audience. The dance should not be longer than 3 minutes and not shorter than 1.5 minutes. Record this on video.  Cell Project Grading Rubric Names CategoryGrading (0-3 Points)Grading (4-8 Points)Grading (9-10 Points)Totals per CategoryInformationLacks major detail and explanation a number of cell parts/organelles not complete or left out many inaccurate statements or descriptionsGood explanation, some detail in describing most (7-8) cell parts/organelles functions nice overview but some parts lacking in detail or left out may be inaccurateExcellent explanations, in-depth detail on all (9-10) cell parts/organelles accurately highlights major functions and interactions between cell structures overall______/10Quality of WorkMinimal effort put into project messy, hard to read, or falling apart no evidence of time spent on final productEffort is evident may be somewhat hard to read or hastily put together time spent is evident but final product may not be complete or is not polishedExtra effort and time spent are evident product is polished and well organized easy to read and neatly arranged______/10CreativityLacks color, humor, and other creative elements overly simple or blandSome creativity is evident product is colorful and interesting may be bland or
