Last month, my 6th grader studied plant and animal cells and their parts in science. She was having a hard time recognizing and remembering the functions of the organelles in the cells. So, I created these posters and printables to help her {and me} study. They really helped her out.

Recognizing and remembering the functions of the organelles in the cells can be a challenge.  Here are FREE posters and printables to assist your kids, and you, in learning more about cells. Ideal for grades 4-6.

The first thing we did was use the flip book to record the function of each of the organelles. We are using Pandia Press’s R.E.A.L. Science Odyssey: Biology Level 2. Therefore, our definitions match her text; however, you can use the definitions in your own text book. The beauty of this flip book is the fact that she could quiz herself on the definitions. She would look at the name of the organelle, say the definition from memory, then lift the flap to check herself.

Lift the Flap Vocabulary Book | encouragingmomsathome.com

After writing out all of her definitions and reviewing them with me, she used the vocabulary cards to play a matching game. She worked until she could match the organelles and their functions.

Vocab Cards

Once I was sure she had the organelles and their functions down, she created an animal cell poster. I had her cut out the organelles and lay them out on the poster board to make sure they all fit the way she wanted them. Then, she penciled in the cell membrane. She picked the organelles back up. She traced the cell membrane and colored in the cytoplasm before gluing the organelles down. I had her label as many organelles as she could from memory. She got them all!

If you are studying cells this year, I hope you’ll find these pages useful. Included in this FREE printable pack, you’ll find 15 learning pages. There are posters with and without labels, the vocabulary lift-the-flap book, vocabulary cards, fill-in-the-blanks review sheet, color pages, and organelle printouts.

    I love you I love you I love you I love you! Seriously, you just saved me. I am just now day 1 starting to homeschool my daughter. (we are on day 1 eek!!!) There is supposed to be a teacher coming weekly but since that hasn’t started and I have no clue when it will actually start, I decided to jump in based on what she was learning at school. I have spent the last hour trying to come up with a ‘packet’ so we can work on cells. I stumbled upon your site and I can’t thank you enough. I feel like a have a starting off point now and I don’t feel so lost. Thank you again!!

    I’ve just landed on your page for the first time and I love you already! My little boy is gifted, driven to learn and very active. At seven years of age it is tricky to find materials that present the level of information he needs (hungers for) in a way that is accessible to him (supersizing and incorporating physical activity and novelty is really important). I will certainly be hanging around here for a while. Thank-you so much for generously sharing your cells pack.

Our Latest Shenanigans

See these pretty little plants playing peekaboo? I See these pretty little plants playing peekaboo? I thought they were goners. See, my sister gave us the bulbs for Asiatic Lillies for Christmas last year, down in a bag full of dirt and told us to take them home and plant them in the cold so they would rest and come back next year. Or freeze them. I did neither. I knew we weren’t in our own home yet, and we were hoping to move into our forever home this summer, so I threw them in the closet and waited. They stayed dormant, and started to develop roots in the Spring, still in the bag in my closet. Come June 5, we moved into our new house, and I pulled out the bag around June 15 to plant them and found that the roots were turning to mush. The bulbs were starting to rot. I planted them anyway, but to make matters worse, I accidentally planted them upside down because I thought the roots were actually sprouts. Oops. Then, I hired my boys and their friends to weed the bed where these are planted and forgot to tell them to leave these alone. The “sprouts” disappeared. I thought they were gone forever. Here it is the middle of August, and a week or so ago, I found these baby Asiatic Lillies coming up. I texted a pic to my sis to ask if this was what they look like. Sure enough after all that trauma, this gift survived. I won’t have blooms this year, but I’m told they will come back next year and survive to bloom. What a sweet blessing that will be, God willing. And a sweet reminder to persevere under trials and hardship. God is doing something bigger, something hidden, something better than we can ever imagine. Hang in there! #momlife #momfierce #momforthewin #firmlyplanted

This horrifies and frightens me. I am so grateful to know that God will prevail. In the end, He wins. Everything seems so dark here in the US and it’s because of the spiritual forces of evil — but I know God will prevail. His love never fails.

First #sheisloved campaign with @mercyhouseglobal and sheispriceless.org - check that out it’s important. Second - that cute bracelet came from @mercyhouseglobal about a month ago and *didn’t fit*. Today it’s loose enough to twist. I haven’t lost a lot of pounds according to the scale — I kinda stalled out three or four weeks ago at 17 pounds lost — but apparently I’m losing fat. That’s a victory. Third, my hands look like my moms and will some day look like my grandmas. I consider that a blessing.  Finally, it’s been a beautiful day😍 but I’m kinda sad it took me this long to find a red marker and share the love.
