25 students (one classroom)
1st grade of Gymnasium, 1st grade of Lyceum
The students observe the basic cell features and relate a certain structure with a specific function.
Can you write a secret message using everyday food components? How can we fool our senses? Is it possible for music to affect our taste? We answer these questions and many more in an interesting and interactive way.
Fundamental biology phenomena and principles are demonstrated before the students’ eyes.
Students observe and compare cell structures, biological systems and organisms. They study basic human anatomy systems and associate cell structure with cell function. Methodologies concerning the identification of specific elements are discussed, and the concepts of energy and respiration are introduced.
