BACKWARD DESIGN TEMPLATE Adapted from digitalliteracy.mwg.org, which was adapted/formatted from Understanding by Design by Grant Wiggins and Jay McTighe Unit Title: Cells Step 1: Identify Desired Results What enduring ideas and/or overarching What are the overarching “essential” understandings is this unit of instruction questions? based upon? How does a cell’s structure allow it to make up 1. Explain why cells are so small. an organism? 2. Relate cell parts/organelles (plasma membrane, nuclear envelope, nucleus, nucleolus, cytoplasm, mitochondrion, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosome, ribosome, vacuole, cell wall, chloroplast, cytoskeleton, cilium, flagellum, to their functions. 3. Use cellular evidence (e.g., cell structure, cell number, cell reproduction) and modes of nutrition to describe the kingdoms Plant, Animal, Protist, Fungi, Archeabacteria, Eubacteria What will students understand as a result of this unit? Surface to volume ratio of a cell and its importance in maintaining materials in and out of the cell. How organelles aid in the processes of a cell and how many of these organelles work together (i.e. ribosomes, ER, golgi) What will students be able to do as a result of this unit? Demonstrate a proper cell size in cell races Identify and describe various organelles and their function in the cell Classify a cell into the appropriate kingdom based on a microscopic image. That there are various types of cells that scientists organize into kingdoms however many of these kingdoms also share similar characteristics. Step 2: Determine Acceptable Evidence What evidence will show that students understand… Performance Tasks, Projects 1. Cell Size Lab & Cell Races (3 different size agar cubes with chemical indicator to model surface area to volume ratios and then students must design their own cell out of the agar cube and the cell with the fastest diffusion rate wins) 2. Inquiry Lab: What can you find in a cell? (students are given various cells and asked to observe and draw them and complete a compare and contrast graphic organizer). Students will then be asked to place the unknown cells into categories based on their observations. 3. Acting out a Cell (each student is assigned a role of the cell they must act out and the class acts as a giant cell) 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Quizzes, Tasks, Academic Prompts Cell Analogy Project (compare a cell to something more familiar like a factory) Cell Organelle Quiz Kingdoms of Life Quiz Kingdoms Project, Design a Brochure Bell work questions about Other Evidence (e.g. observations, work samples, dialogues) 1. Students will assess their cell design with classmates during cell size races Student Self-Assessment 1. Compare their cell graphic organizers with peers and assess their method of classification 2. Assess their cell and kingdom projects based on given rubrics 3. Mini-Quiz- students will be given a quiz that will not count as a grade to assess their knowledge of cell organelles and kingdoms. Step 3: Plan Learning Experiences and Instruction Given the targeted understandings, other unit goals, and the assessment evidence identified, what knowledge and skills are needed? Students will need to know… Students will need to be able to… (Space will expand as you type into it.) Demonstrate a proper cell size in cell races 1. How to use a microscope 2. How to create detailed scientific Identify and describe various organelles and drawings from the microscope their function in the cell 3. Basic math for calculating volume and surface area of a cube. Classify a cell into the appropriate kingdom based on a microscopic image. What specific learning activities will achieve What specific learning activities will achieve the desired goals stated above? the desired goals stated above? (Space will expand as you type into it.)

Acting out a Cell (each student is assigned a role of the cell they must act out and the class acts as a giant cell) What teachings and learning experiences will equip students to demonstrate the targeted understandings? (Space will expand as you type into it.) Using agar cubes will visually model how a cell needs to be small in order to allow materials to diffuse in and out properly. The mathematically calculations will provide numerical ratios but seeing how a smaller cube will turn completely clear versus a larger cube with a bright pink center will visually show how wastes could not get out of the cell or nutrients in and therefore the cell will not survive. Using various cells students will try to identify the parts of the cell using their textbooks and then compare and contrast all the cells coming to a conclusion on how all cells are similar and how they are different. From that students will create categories of the cells. This lab will be used as a jumping off point to teach about cell parts and kingdoms. From there various projects mentioned above will be given as well as quick dipstick questions to ensure all students are on track. Students that have mastered the material will be asked to complete a more advanced reading on cells while students still building knowledge will work on various homework activities to further assist them with cell organelles and kingdoms. Once the lesson is done a summative assessment on cells and kingdoms will be given
