Cell Organelle Pre-Test
This assessment will cover the following standards:
SC.6.N.3.4 – Identify the role of models in the context of 6th grade science benchmarks.
SC.6.L.14.4 – Compare and contrast the structure and function of major organelles of plant and animal cells, including cell
wall, cell membrane, nucleus, cytoplasm, chloroplast, mitochondria and vacuoles.
LA.6.2.2.3- Students will organize information to show understanding.
LA.6.4.2.2- The students will record information related to a topic including visual aides to organize and record
information.
