The lesson is for a low ability class with a Pokemon theme throughout.
The starter involves designing a cell with a function. The pupils can be as imaginative as they like. You can get them to judge each other's cells.
Pupils then get given a poster (to be printed in A3) to complete by circulating the room and collecting information. There is a lower ability poster which tells them where to write all the information and links it to animal and plant Pokemon. There is also a higher ability poster which they decide which Pokemon would have those cells, there is a male and female version of the same Pokemon (this may need explaining if your pupils aren't familiar with Pokemon - the top right is female and the one directly below is male - they look slightly different).
Then show pictures of different cells and pupils can use mini white boards to name them - I use this as an opportunity to get verbal confirmation that pupils can give a structure and function of each.
Finally there is a choice of two exit tickets, a true and false or a match exercise.
