Reflective Introduction:
In the last class, the history of the cell was discussed including the scientists and
discoveries that lead to the creation of the cell theory. This lesson is meant to give students a
further look into what cells are and their basic role in organisms. It will cover the cell theory as
well as the two main types of cells, eukaryotic and prokaryotic. Along with that, the activity will
give students a chance to look at their own cells and make connections to what is being discussed
in the classroom. With that, the discussion will allow students to talk about what they observed in
scientific terms as well as explain their thinking process. The notes and discussions will help to
build up the foundational knowledge needed to cover the rest of the standards in this unit.

Lesson evaluation (Identify successful management, learning, enjoyment and the evidence
of it. Refer to objectives. Areas for development.)
During class discussions, observe conversations to determine student knowledge and
clear up any points of confusion. When students are using the microscopes, check in with each
student to ensure they are on track and answer any questions that may arise. Incorporate guiding
questions in order to help extend their thinking.
Safety concerns:
Ensure students use caution with iodine drops.
