Carbohydrates Lesson Plan carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids; “What are some things you already know about carbohydrates?
Students should have a basic understanding of the structures and functions of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids Page 2 • Carbohydrates
This module was designed and written with you in mind It is here to help you master the concepts behind the categories of biomolecules,
Lesson Information Learning Objectives 1 The student will be able to describe and identify the basic structures of carbohydrates, lipids, proteins,
carbohydrates In this lesson, we will explore a second very important group of compounds known as lipids A more commonly used term for lipids is fats
Biomolecule Activities Objectives 1 Describe the structure and function of lipids, nucleic acids, carbohydrates and proteins
Summary of lesson: When studying the chemistry of cells, students will learn the four classes of organic compounds: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins,
Lipids? • Fats and oils store energy • Phospholipids—structural role in cell membranes • Carotenoids and chlorophylls—capture light energy in
4) Summarize basic functions and food sources of carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, and minerals (Cognitive / Synthesis)
Lessons 4-5 then introduce and examine carbohydrates, the second of three organic compounds that could be covered (the final being lipids, not included in
Make sure your story answers the objectives and shows that you can connect the concepts you are supposed
to learn.Think of a picture analogy for each of the four macromolecules (proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic
acids). The picture should include the following parts: (You are to draw ONE picture per macromolecule!)
Really want to impress? Make a one-panel cartoon for each macromolecule instead of just a picture for each!
You must create your analogies TOGETHER in one picture. NO SENTENCES. You can use words to label parts of your drawing, but you cannot have any written explanation/dialogue/etc.Directions: Use the terms below to create a concept map. A concept map is a graphic organizer that illustrates the
connection between terms, ideas, concepts, processes etc. Create a concept map that answers the objectives and uses all of the vocabulary words listed below.All connectors must be labeled with why you made the connections you did. Make sure you are making connections
between concepts, not just writing definitions. Typically a concept map goes from general or big ideas to smaller more
specific or detailed ideas. Additionally, a connecting phrase describes the relationship between each of the terms. Use
all of the terms below (each should be in a box or bubble) to create a concept. You may also include terms and
definitions other than those below.
