Cell Organelle Comparison
Project
Dec 2013
Goal: Compare function of cell
organelles to functions of organism
• Warm Up:
• List 3 organelles and their functions
• (example- can’t use this onechromosome= DNA, instructions for
the cell)
Cell Organelle Comparison Project
• You will choose one project from the menu as
a way to present your material. You need to
explain the function of each cell organelle and
compare it to the function of a body system or
organ or a job.
• The grading is: 3 points for each organelle,
each function, and each comparison (81 pts)
• 10pts for neatness & creativity; 9 pts turned in
on time = Jan 8th
Menu Choices
• Venn Diagram – must have a title for entire diagram, & a
title for each section

• Cartoon/comic strip- must have at least 6 boxes/drawings,
meaningful dialogue, creative use of color
• Crossword puzzle- puzzle and answer key
• Collage- no clip art, pictures from magazines or internet,
labeled- organelle, function, comparison
• Song- words that make sense, must be at least 2 minutes
• Acrostic- use “organelle” or other word down the middle,
then use it to list organelle, functions, & comparisons
• Mobile- list all organelles, functions, & comparisons
• News report- the who, what when of the project; turn in a
