FLICKR LESSON PLAN - IDEA #2

GRADE 5 SCIENCE
TOPIC: MICROSCOPE AND CELL

OBJECTIVE:
At the end of the lesson, SWBAT explore the cell structure of an Elodea leaf and compare it to other plant cells.
  1. Students will be able to see a sample image of the cell structure of an elodea leaf.
  2. Students will be able to describe the basic structure of a plant cell.
  3. Students will upload other plant cell photo. They will annotate this photo that will show the same basic cell structure as the Elodea.

PROCESS:

TEACHER
Using Flickr, I will upload my cell image and add notes to show the basic cell characteristic of plants.

The annotated image of this cell structure will be shown to the students using the multi-media projector. The annotations will be displayed and explained.

I will create a Flickr group for the class to enable photo sharing.

STUDENTS
Through their Flickr account, students will upload another plant cell image. They will annotate this image to show the basic cell structure common to plant cells akin to the Elodea.

Students will then share their photo to the class Flickr group.

Hi - I'm wondering if this image of the elodea plant is your own, or if not, what your source was; I would like to use the image in my thesis and would like to obtain the proper permission.
Thank you!
