CELLS The building blocks of life!

Animal CellPlant Cell

Nucleus

The nucleus controls everything that happens in the cell!

Membrane

The membrane surrounds and protects the cell!

Organelles

Organelles carry out different life processes like nutrition!

Cytoplasm

The cytoplasm is a thick, clear and gooey liquid, protected by the membrane!

Chloroplasts

Chloroplasts contain a green liquid called chlorophyll. They help carry out photosynthesis or nutrition in plants!

Cell Wall

Plants have a rigid cell wall around the membrane.

This helps to support the plant

Vacuole

Plant cells have a vacuole, where they hold food and water.

Sources and Extra Material"Cells, Cells”Original Rap by Ms. Quitmeyer

Today's the day were gonna learn about the cellIf I teach it okay, you'll know it very wellSo listen up 6th graders--no room left for haters-lets talk about the building blocks of life- cells that make us.

Chorus: Cells, cells they're made of ________________________Try to pull a fast one, the _____________________ gelsThe ____________________ takes over controllin' everythingThe party don't stop 'till the ______________________ blocks the sceneInside the _____________________ we can float around for hoursRunning round with _____________________, lovin' sunlight showers____________, ______________, they're made of organelles

First things first, there's two different types-___________________ and _________________ cells that make up all life.The little things that make up microscopic cells,The main structures- yeah, we call them __________________________.Now let's break it down and get some information-How do cells work? It's a crazy combination!

-Chorus-

The cell __________________________ is the border patrol,Who can cross over? The membrane lets 'em knowThe gooey stuff inside, is called the __________________________It holds the _____________________- don't worry, plasm-has 'em!In the middle of the cell you'll find the big brain,The ___________________ surrounded by nuclear membraneDon't forget the _____________________________ filled up with water

It's a basic need for life when this rap keeps getting hotter!

-Chorus-

The _______________________ is something every cell needs,Breaking down the food and releasin' energy.There's a place inside the cell where chemicals are stored, the squiggly golgi bodies, releasin' even more.You hangin' in the cell is endoplasmic reticulum, synthesizin' enzymes for respiration, and um...If you still think that this rap is whack, remember ribosomes making proteins gettin' jacked!

-Chorus-

Lookin at the plant cell, weird and greentwo more parts is all it takes you see?Cell wall knows what's up when it comes to keepin' structureStrong with ___________________, this cell can't get much tougher.______________________________________, These little green machines are havin' a blastPhotosythenisizing- filled with chlorophyll-they hit the cell club, runnin' up a high bill-

-Chorus-Cells, cells they're made of ________________________Try to pull a fast one, the _____________________ gelsThe ____________________ takes over controllin' everythingThe party don't stop 'till the ______________________ blocks the sceneInside the _____________________ we can float around for hoursRunning round with _____________________, lovin' sunlight showers____________, ______________, they're made of organelles.
