“Our Edible Plant Cell Model”

Objectives:
1. We expect to learn the parts of a plant cell after this activity.
2. After this activity we expect to learn the functions to each and every
parts.
3. After this activity we expect to learn the correlation of all parts of the
cell to make the plant grow.
Materials:
- Marshmallow - Frutos - Ube flavored dice

- Gummy worms - Jelly - Powdered sugar

- Banana - Gummy strips

- Grapes - Food coloring
