How Does One Explain the Processes of Life at the Cellular Level?!?



In sixth grade life science, students are asked to answer the essential question - "How can one explain the ways cells contribute to the function of living organisms?"  Most of the first six weeks of science class were spent learning about cells and the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration that help formulate the answer to this question.

Students have been practicing ways to explain how cells contribute to the function of living organisms.   They are developing an understanding that cells provide a place for the transfer of solar energy into chemical energy in the plant process of photosynthesis, and the movement of oxygen and energy needed for cellular respiration.  Enjoy the following videos of sixth graders explaining how the processes work together!
