What educators are saying

What a great resource! Great resource, easy to use, kids were engaged throughout the lesson. I have recommended this lesson to fellow teachers and they love it as well.
I've used this resource so much! Great resource to check for prior knowledge and understanding throughout the unit. I plant to continue to use them periodically until the end of course exam just to keep the information in their minds.

Description

Teaching the different types of of Biomolecules or Macromolecules is foundational to every life science class during your Cell Unit. Transform your lesson on the biomolecules/macromolecules and increase student engagement with a fun and interactive Card Sort Activity. At the end of this activity, your students will have shown you that they can differentiate and describe the elements, monomers, functions, and examples of the four types of biomolecules/macromolecules.

What's Included?

  • 16 Cards

How is it designed?

In the activity, students are challenged to use their knowledge of the four types of biomolecules to sort them based on their elements, monomers, functions, and examples of each type.

What are some ways I can use this in my classroom?

Card sorts are so versatile and can be used at any point during a lesson.

  • Use before a lesson to encourage student inquiry and discussion
  • Use mid lesson to gauge understanding
  • Use at the end of the lesson as an exit ticket activity
  • Use the day after a lesson to see how much students retained

This activity is always so much fun in my classroom and brings engagement as we review the four types of biomolecules/macromolecules.

Construct and revise an explanation based on evidence for how carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen from sugar molecules may combine with other elements to form amino acids and/or other large carbon-based molecules. Emphasis is on using evidence from models and simulations to support explanations. Assessment does not include the details of the specific chemical reactions or identification of macromolecules.
