Teacher note: Be sensitive to this topic since biological parents may be unavailable.
Sample Tasks:
A. Brainstorm a list of inherited traits, such as eye color. Create a survey for students to gather information about those with or without each trait. (Fourteen people in the class have brown eyes; twelve people have blue eyes, etc.) Organize data into a table or graph. Graphing tools include tally charts, spreadsheets or graphing software.
B. Make a list of learned behaviors, such as habits, table manners, mannerisms, etc. Observe others to view those learned behaviors. (When I watched you drink from a tea cup, you always put your little finger in the air.) Compare and contrast inherited traits and learned behaviors. Using what you learned, write a story about who you are and why you became who you are. Add a conclusion about how you could improve your learned behaviors.
C. Identify how characteristics are transferred in cells. Discuss what a gene is and the role genes play in the transfer of characteristics. Put different traits on craft sticks (brown eyes, blue eyes, green eyes, freckles, no freckles, curly hair or fur, straight hair or fur, pink fur, brown scales, etc.) Have students randomly choose different sticks and draw a cartoon of their organism.
D. Research methods plant scientists in Georgia (Contact your local agriculture departments, county extension agents, 4-H leaders, and UGA Experiment Stations.) use to transfer characteristics of plants to produce such plant products as drought-resistance, varied rose color, azaleas that bloom at different times of the year, Vidalia onions, juicier apples, faster growing evergreen trees, etc.

S5L3c. Explain how cells in multi-celled organisms are similar and different in structure and function to single-celled organisms.
Sample Tasks:
A. Observe cells with magnifiers such as microscopes or hand lenses to find out about the
structure of cells. Ideas of cells for viewing include onion skin, leaf cell, hay infusion, pond water organisms, budding yeast, tail of a fish, butterfly wing, animal skin or muscle (chicken wing), etc. Sketch what you see.
B. Compare and contrast the structure and function of plant and animal cells by drawing and labeling each.
C. Explain the various roles of cells in multi-celled organisms. Include in the explanation how the cells vary in appearance and what they do for the organism. Determine that in a multicelled organism, a cell makes up the tissue of an organ.
D. Determine how the basic needs of cells are met by researching the structure of a cell. Draw and label parts of a plant cell and an animal cell needed for the cell to function. Include such parts as membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, etc. Use your drawings to explain how plant cells are similar to and different from animal cells.

• Single-celled organisms
• Cells in multi-celled organisms
S5L4. Students will relate how microorganisms benefit or harm larger organisms.
S5L4a. Identify beneficial microorganisms and explain why they are beneficial.

Sample Tasks:

B. Pretend you are a scientist working in the food industry. Explain what skills you must have to study the effects of microorganisms on your product. Resources include doctors, microbiologists, food scientists, botanists, and online sites such asCenters for Disease Control: http://www.cdc.gov and Food and Drug Administration: http://www.fda.gov , etc.
