Class on Tuesday, September 27

Today we started talking about our new unit about CELLS. Today in class Mrs. Stein curiously asked the class why they think cells are so boring and hard. We then brainstormed what we know about cells and going around the room, Mrs. Stein made a list of what we know about cells. Each person would make one point about cells. If Mrs. Stein thought the statement was a basis of cell theory then she marked it purple, if she thought the statement is something cells need, she made it green.

PURPLE-Basis of cell theory
GREEN- Cells need this

*"Building Blocks" of life-All living things are made of cells
*DNA- organized in chromosomes
*Cell membrane
*Cytoplasm- liquid in the cell
*Function- Cells are the basic functional unit of life
*New cells come from existing cells- Mitosis (cell division)
