FREE Parts of a Cell Cheat Sheet and Fact Cards

The world of the cell is intricate beyond imagination. There are factories, methods of transportation, communication, and so much more. Help your kids learn about the parts of animal cells and plant cells with this FREE Parts of a Cell Cheat Sheet and Fact Cards unit. 

The FREE Parts of a Cell Cheat Sheet and Fact Cards unit is easy to use and is low-prep. It begins with a cheat sheet of 19 important parts of the cell and defines each one. It covers: 

• cell membrane
• centrioles
• cytoplasm
• endoplasmic reticulum
• Golgi apparatus
• Golgi vesicles
• lysosome
• microtubules
• mitochondria
• nucleolus
• nucleus
• ribosome
• amyloplast
• cell wall
• chloroplast
• Druse crystal
• granum
• raphide crystal
• stroma lamellae

Next are nineteen full-color fact cards that illustrate each of these parts of a cell, define each part, and list whether it is found in animal cells, plant cells, or both. 

The unit also includes nineteen black and white fact cards with illustrations of the nineteen parts of the cell covered. Students can then fill in the definition/function of each part and list whether it is found in animal cells, plant cells, or both. They can also color the illustrations on each card if they choose. 

This is a great companion to our FREE Discovering Cells, DNA, and Heredity Unit for grades 4-8, also found in our subscriber library.
