Teacher Help PagePrep Instructions: 1. Decide how many sets of cards you will need to create. This game is best played with 2 players, but could be played with up to 4 players.2. Print the number of sets of cards you would like in color and trip any white edges. 3. Laminate cards (so they last for years!) and cut along the dotted lines (recruit some student help!)4. Keep the cards in individual envelopes to pass out to your groups of kids on game day!

Game Instructions: 1. Students will spread all 24 cards facing down next to each other. They will need to work at a larger surface so all cards will fit!2. Students will then take turns turing 2 cards over at a time trying to get a match between the organelle and it’s function.3. Each time a student gets a correct match, they keep those two cards. 4. Whichever student has the most cards at the end of the game WINS!

Note: Depending on how you use this, you can decide whether you would like them to be able to use previous notes or how they will check their answers.
