  1. Strategy: Analogies Keela Parsons March 19, 2013

  2. Steps for Analogies Strategy • Select a concept familiar to the students that is analogous in certain ways to the new concept. • Introduce a blank analogy graphic organizer (or table). Label the new concept in the left column and familiar concept in the right column. • Brainstorm similar characteristics of the two concepts and write those in the correct column. • After the lesson students revisit the graphic organizer, adding or revising the information. • Students write a summary describing the new concept using the information on the organizer.

  3. What is an Analogy? • Agreement or similarity, especially in a certain limited number of features or details • A comparison made to show such a similarity • Biology: the relationship between analogous organs or parts, such as organelles

  4. Diagram of a Cell

  5. Nucleus Function • Controls cell activities • Contains the hereditary material of the cell Analogous City Structure • City Hall http://blogs.sfweekly.com/thesnitch/San%20Francisco%20City%20Hall.jpg

  6. Mitochondria Function • Breaks down sugar molecules to release energy • Site of aerobic cellular respiration Analogous City Structure • Power Plants http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_station

  7. Golgi Complex Function • Modify proteins made by the cells • Package and export proteins Analogous City Structure • UPS http://info.tpj.org/watchyourassets/walmart/walmart_boxes_web.jpg http://www.siteselection.com/issues/2012/jan/images/UPS_BonnGermany.jpg

  8. Ribosome Function • Synthesizes proteins Analogous City Structure • Factory http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/71/Wolfsburg_VW-Werk.jpg/250px-Wolfsburg_VW-Werk.jpg

  9. Lysosome Function • Digests proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates • Transports undigested material to the cell membrane • Cell breaks down if lysosome breaks Analogous City Structure • Recycling Plant/Waste Disposal http://www.thegreenwichphantom.co.uk/uploaded_images/DSCF0050-749227.JPG

  10. Cell Membrane Function • Support and protection • Controls movement of materials in/out of cell • Barrier between cell and its environment • Helps maintain homeostasis Analogous City Structure • City Limits http://farm7.staticflickr.com/6179/6168993081_d26e648576_z.jpg http://www.destinationflatonia.com/documents/zoning/city_limits_aeria2-04l.jpg
