Cell Analogy from Internet http://www.slideshare.net/lbrunin/cell-analogy-presentation

Why use analogy? • Use analogies to make new and unfamiliar concepts more meaningful to students by connecting what they already know to what they are learning. • When students create their own analogies for new concepts, the analogy can provide a way to assess their understanding of the new concepts. Why use metaphor? • Use metaphors to help students review or gain insight into content. “How was the American Revolution like an earthquake?”  • Provide a graphic organizer and ask students to jot down whatever they know about the subject and object. • Ask students to work through as many connections as possible. • Create a product that demonstrates or explains the key concepts.
