Unit-History of the Living Earth: Photosynthesis & Cellular Respiration Tic-Tac-Toe Selection Project
Your group must pick the center square, but the other two choices are up to your group as long as they make up a winning TIC-
TAC-TOE line!
Create a Kahoot Quiz
Make up a quiz on kahoot with 20
questions and answers covering the
topic of cell respiration (10 questions)
and photosynthesis (10 questions).
Create a Vocabulary Bank
Using google docs, make a dictionary
with your own simplified definition
and a picture for the following
vocabulary: (Anaerobic, Aerobic,
Glycolysis, Pyruvate, Fermentation,
ATP, NADH, NAD+, Krebs Cycle,
acetyl coA, Electron Transfer
Phosphorylation)
Google Slides Presentation –
Compare & Contrast
Create a presentation comparing and
contrasting Photosynthesis & Cellular
Respiration
 Slide(s) Describing
photosynthesis (include both
words and chemical equations,
pictures, videos)
 Slide(s) describing cellular
respiration (include both
words and chemical equations,
Digital Notebook Research
Create 2 entries in your digital notebook.
Create 1 for a plant/animal that
undergoes photosynthesis & 1 for an
plant/animal that undergoes cellular
respiration. Include the following…
 Must be from your local park or
backyard
 Facts (name, habitat/location,
size, color, lifespan, food)
 Label (producer, herbivore,
omnivore or carnivore)
 Original illustration of the plant
and animal
Writing – Compare & Contrast CER
Write a 6 paragraph paper comparing
and contrasting Photosynthesis &
Cellular Respiration and Claiming which
is most important.
 1 paragraph introduction
 1 paragraph describing
photosynthesis (include both
words and chemical equations)
 1 paragraph describing cellular
respiration (include both words
and chemical equations)
 1 paragraph comparing &
contrasting the two
 1 paragraph CER on which one
your group believes is most
important
o Claim which is most
important
o Evidence why it is
important
o Reasoning putting it all
together
 1 paragraph closing
Photosynthesis Diagram
Draw a diagram using google draw
showing how photosynthesis works.
Label all major steps and products and
reactants. Include the light dependent
and light independent reactions. Identify
the effects of temperature, light intensity,
and CO2 on rate of photosynthesis.
Make it colorful and creative
Create a Vocabulary Bank
Using google docs, make a
dictionary with your own simplified
definition and a picture for the
following vocabulary:
(Photosynthesis, photosynthesis
reactants, photosynthesis products,
Calvin cycle, electron transport
chain, photolysis, carbon fixation, C3
plants, chemoautotrophs, autotrophs,
heterotrophs.
3-D Model
Create a 3-D model depicting a
carbon-based molecule that we
learned about during the carbon
cycle. The model must be…
 Must be 3-D, so that you can
use whatever you like to
create this molecule. Here
are some suggestions; (legos,
marshmallows, clay,
styrofoam, toothpicks etc.)
Create a short video that
introduces subject; and
provides a description of the
sculpture, and its role in
sustaining life)
Graphic Organizer – Compare &
Contrast
Create a 3-panel “foldable”
comparing and contrasting
Photosynthesis & Cellular
Respiration
 1 panel describing
Photosynthesis with pictures
 1 panel describing Cellular
Respiration with pictures
 1 (middle) panel comparing
and contrasting
 pictures, videos) Photosynthesis & Cellular
Slide(s) comparing and contrasting the Respiration (must include
two chemical and word equations
for both reactions)
