Title: Development of Cell Theory, Types of Cells PPT, Types of Cell Pratice
Standard:
SB1 → Students will analyze the nature of relationships between structures and functions in
living cells
(a) Explain the role of cell organelles for both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, including the
cell membrane, in maintaining homeostasis and cell reproduction
Essential Question:
What does the cell theory state? What is the difference between a prokaryotic and eukaryotic
cell?
Bellringer:
What is the basic unit of Life?.
Activator:
Give two different types of cells.
Teaching Strategies:
 Students will create a small timeline about the development of cell theory.
 Then students will take fill-in-the-blank notes on cell theory and types of cells using
Nearpod.
 Finally, students will complete 3 comprehension questions on Nearpod, based on the
notes they took.
Summarizer:
Students will create a Venn diagram, comparing and contrasting eukaryotic and prokaryotic
cells, along with analyzing different descriptions to decide which type of cell it is.
