Chapter 13 What's the Big Idea? Assessing for Understanding

Middle Schoolers Blog About Organelles (page 303)

Respond to the blog assignment below. 
This is a diagnostic assessment, assuming you may or may not know about organelles (as a middle schooler, of course).  Using any reference, photo, link, text to help answer this question (an authentic assessment question), post your response.  Feel free to respond to others' postings.

YOU ARE FIRED!  You are an organelle of your choice and you are about to be fired.  You must defend yourself and explain why it would be a huge mistake to fire you.  (Fletcher, 2008).

    I get things where they need to go throughout the cell. You can not fire me or the important materials the cell needs to survive will not get to the right spot!

    You can't fire me! I am the nucleus, or the "brain" of the cell. I direct cell activities and store DNA. Without me, there would be no protein synthesis.

    Don't fire me! I ensure that the cell runs properly. Everything will be ruined without me!

    Please don't fire me! I'm the lysosome and I digest everything the cell doesn't need! Without me, the cell won't stay clean and healthy!

    You can't fire me! Not only do I receive and distribute blood, I also pump oxygen to the lungs so you can breathe! I am the one and only Heart.

    Please don't fire me!! I'm the mitochondrion and I take nutrients and turn them into energy. Without me you wouldn't even be awake or able to move!
