3-D
Cell Model Project – Due May 14th
See attached rubric and directions.
1st-4th graders can
skip guidelines #B (it could be 2 dimensional) and #G (do not have to include
functions).
5th-8th graders
please follow all guidelines.
Suggestions – Type in “3-D models of cell
ideas” in a search engine and many different ideas will come up. This is also a
great website with ideas: https://owlcation.com/stem/3d-cell-model
The projects will be put on display at our
end-of-the year awards night.
Benchmarks:
April 9th – Email or text me the
website link to your project idea. (5pts)
April 23rd – Email or text me a
picture of your project progress. (10 pts)
May 7th – Email or text me a
picture of your project ¾ of the way completed. (10 pts)
May 12th – Completed project
brought in that morning. (60 points)
3-D Cell Model Grading Rubric (TEST GRADE!)
Excellent (10)
Satisfactory (9-8)
Needs Improvement (6)
Unacceptable (3)
Appearance
Project stands out from the rest, shows evidence of considerable effort.
Appearance is neat, labels are typed or neatly written, project is organized, and shows evidence of good effort.
Labels are hard to read, project is not neatly done, more effort needed
Appears hastily built, lack of effort is evident.
Creativity
Cell model uses materials not often seen in most projects.
Good, creative use of materials that are often used by other students
Minimal creativity is used; project is a poster or other 2-D model.
Lacks creativity, copied from diagram in book.
Cell Type
Cell model clearly represents a either an animal or a plant cell
Cell model represents a plant or animal cell.
Model is a replica of a generalized cell.
Details
All organelles & cell parts are accurately detailed and clearly represented. Actual numbers of organelles are represented.
Most organelles & cell parts are accurately detailed and clearly recognizable. Actual numbers of organelles are represented.
More detail needed to recognize cell parts. Some are not recognizable. Numbers of organelles are somewhat representative of an actual cell.
Parts of cell are generalized “blobs” of color. Numbers of organelles are NOT representative of an actual cell.
Labeled Organelles
11+ organelles are correctly located and labeled on the model.
8-10 organelles are correctly located and labeled on the model.
5-7 organelles are correctly located and labeled on the model.
<5 organelles are labeled OR there are errors with organelles identified.
Functions of Organelles (on back of label)
Functions of all organelles are correctly described in detail.
Functions of all organelles are correctly summarized.
Functions of some organelles are summarized with minor errors.
Functions are not clearly explained or contain errors.

3-D Cell Model
Objective: Make a 3-D model of a cell.
Guidelines: A.) You may choose to make a plant or animal cell. If you choose to B.) Your cell must be 3- dimensional with front, back and sides. C.) The model may be edible or non-edible D.) All parts of your cell must be labeled clearly. Suggestion: use toothpicks and pieces of paper to make little flags. E.) Your organelles should clearly represent the actual organelle. By just looking at an organelle I should be able to tell what it is. Ex: Your nucleus should not be square. Your mitochondria should have a folded inner membrane. F.) Actual numbers of organelles found in real cells should be represented. Ex: Each cell has one nucleus. Plant cells have one large vacuole. Cells have multiple mitochondria and other organelles. G.) Functions of each organelle should be provided. Suggestion: use the back side of your label “flags” to write down the job of that organelle. H.) Be unique and creative! Use a variety of appropriate materials.
Organelles that should be included:
Eukaryotic Plant Cell Eukaryotic Animal Cell 1. Cell Wall 1. Cell Membrane 2. Cell Membrane 2. Cytoplasm 3. Cytoplasm 3. Nucleus 4. Nucleus 4. Nucleolus 5. Nucleolus 5. Smooth ER 6. Smooth ER 6. Rough ER 7. Rough ER 7. Ribosomes 8. Ribosomes 8. Golgi Apparatus 9. Golgi Apparatus 9. Vacuole(s) 10. Vacuole(s) 10. Mitochondria 11. Mitochondria 11. Lysosomes 12. Chloroplast
