"What is the strangest plant in the world? This video explores the contenders and teaches lots about plant science at the same time."

"Here are words that will be helpful to students doing a hands-on science inquiry to view prepared slides of plant and animal cells to identify parts and learn the function of each. They relate their observations to the Essential Question: What are the parts of an animal cell and a plant cell? "
