Cell Me a Story
by Amber Caulkins
This lesson provides an overview of the differences between living and nonliving things. Students will be asked to compare and contrast living and nonliving things and describe the characteristics of living things. This lesson provides a great opener to a unit on cells. As part of the lesson students will be asked to create an "Instagram Story" that compares humans and amoebas and describes how they are both living things.
