ONLINE UNIT OF STUDY

This unit includes consolidated online resources and recommended learning activities. Units are divided into three learning levels and are designed to be used by parents and students as a guide in their homeschooling program. Printable materials and time-tracking tools are included with your purchase. 

UNIT GOALS

Upon completing this unit, students will demonstrate understanding of the following:

  • All living things are made up of cells, which are too small to see without a microscope.
  • The cell is an organism’s basic unit of structure and function, and while some organisms consist of only one cell, cells can be specialized to perform certain functions or combine to form larger structures.
  • Most cells consist of similar structures, such as membranes, organelles, and genetic material, each of which performs a specific function.
  • All cells undergo specific metabolic reactions, such as respiration and photosynthesis to harvest and store energy. 
  • Cells reproduce by division in a cyclical process called mitosis, which has distinct steps that occur in a specific order.
  • Mitosis is also the process by which cells grow, repair themselves, and develop specific functions or specializations.

PROGRAM DESIGN

Through our Homeschool Solutions online learning program, we aim to offer an educational resource that can truly benefit the homeschooling community. The curriculum content is made up of reliable online resources, compiled by expert educators. These resources support the learning goals for each unit of study. Unit goals are created by considering the essential content students need to thrive as well-educated, culturally-literate adults in today’s society.

In addition to the essential, foundational knowledge presented in this unit about cells and cell biology, we strive to support the development of key character traits and critical thinking skills that lead to lifelong success. All learning activities in this unit about cells and cell biology are designed with these goals in mind. Science unit activities heavily emphasize the importance of scientific thought and analysis; developing, exploring, and testing hypotheses; solving problems methodically; and considering multiple perspectives.

    Learning about cells was made easy by Lighthouse. It was fun and gave me a greater understanding of life. I don’t believe it would’ve been quite as easy and quick with a different program. I had lots of fun and learned a lot!

    The children in our homeschooling pod learned so much in this unit of study. We enjoyed reading about cells, drawing the different types of cells, and even singing songs about cells! Our class sang a song about cells and cell function for weeks after we had finished this unit. We appreciated how the unit progression built upon lessons we learned from previous science units.
