Claims vs Evidence
Practice for Performance Task Worksheet
Write Answers in your notebook.
Label the top of the next blank page Practice for
Performance Task. Also label this in your index.
Practice #1
You must read all of activity #2 in our science
textbook-SSS unit. Pages A-8 through A-11. Make sure you look at all
data tables.
Write
a complete description of the Garden Problem and identify
claims that made without evidence and claims that are made that are
supported by evidence in the text.
Practice #2
You must read all of activity #23 in our science
textbook-Rocks/Minerals unit. Pages B-48 through B-52. . Make sure

CELL ANALOGY PROJECT EXPECTATIONS
DUE MARCH 14TH, 2014 AT THE END OF CLASS
CELL ANALOGY PROJECT:
CELL ANALOGY PROJECT:
Learning
Goal: Understand
the structures found in most cells and understand the
functions of the structures that are found in most cells.
Expectation#1:
MAKE
A MODEL OF A PLANT OR ANIMAL CELL
Identify
and label
the
structures that are found in most cells.
Write
out the functions of the structures that you have labeled.
You
must include the following
structures:
a. cell membrane
b. cytoplasm Ribosome
c. nucleus
d. nuclear membrane
e. mitochondria
f. cell wall-plant cells
only
g. vacuole
h. chloroplasts—plant
cells only
i. Endoplasmic reticulum
j. Golgi Complex
You
may need to do some research on your own to determine the function of
some of these structures
and determine if they belong in the plant or animal cell or are in
both.
Expectation
#2:
Connect
and communicate your
understanding of these functions in relation to something else that
you
know a lot about or have an interest in. You
must write this connection idea underneath your function information.
Examples:
The Cell walls of a plant
cell are like the walls of a skyscraper because both add support and
strength to the structures.
The coach of the basketball
team is like the nucleus of a cell because both tell their team
members what to do.
The football stadium
security guard is like the cell membrane as both determine who can
enter or leave.
RESOURCES:
Act
42 in textbook, sciencesauraus drawings in your notebook. You may
have to do more research on your own but you must site your source
and use scientific information sites.
MATERIALS:
Construction paper
Water color markers
Poster must be neat and
organized and well done. It should be colorful and readable and
display quality.
