Full lesson	Create for a teacher a set of content for giving a lesson, beginning with the lesson plan. Each new block of materials must begin with an H1 heading (other subheaders must be H2, H3, etc). When you describe required pictures, write those descriptions in curly brackets, for example: {A picture of a triangle}

Class Size

20 Students

Objectives

• Understand the concept of osmosis and its biological significance.
• Identify the differences between osmosis, diffusion, and active transport.
• Explain the process of osmosis in plant and animal cells.
• Conduct a simple experiment to observe osmosis in action.

Materials

• Dialysis tubing (to simulate a cell membrane)
• Starch solution
• Glucose solution
• Iodine solution
• Beakers
• Distilled water
• Graduated cylinders
• Stopwatch
• Whiteboard and markers
• Projector for visual aids

• Aligns with the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) for Life Sciences (HS-LS1-3 and HS-LS1-4)

Lesson Structure

Step Number	Step Title	Length	Details
1	Introduction to Osmosis	5 Minutes	Briefly introduce osmosis; explain its importance in biological systems.
2	Key Terminology	5 Minutes	Define osmosis, diffusion, and active transport. Use visual aids.
3	Osmosis Process	10 Minutes	Explain the mechanism of osmosis using plant and animal cell examples.
4	Hands-On Experiment	7 Minutes	Conduct an experiment using dialysis tubing to demonstrate osmosis.
5	Discussion and Q&A	3 Minutes	Open the floor for questions about the experiment and key concepts.

Homework

• Assign a worksheet that requires students to summarize the process of osmosis and differentiate it from diffusion and active transport. Students should submit their work via the learning management system by the next class session.
• Provide a short reading from the textbook on osmosis and its applications in real-life scenarios.

Assessment

• Monitor participation during the experiment and discussion.
• Review the submitted homework for comprehension of osmosis and its processes.

Additional Notes

• Ensure to encourage students to ask questions during the lesson to promote engagement.
• Use real-life examples to relate the concept of osmosis to everyday scenarios, enhancing understanding.
