I use storyboarding to teach the processes of protein synthesis, photosynthesis, and cellular respiration. I introduce my students to the concept of storyboarding by showing them this American Film Institute video, which can be found on these three web sites:

Here is the hand out for Cellular Respiration (see example key at the bottom of this post):
Storyboard - Cellular Respiration
Name _____________________________________________
INSTRUCTIONS FOR STORYBOARDING ACTIVITY – CELLULAR RESPIRATION
1. YOU MUST PUT AT LEAST EIGHT FACTS ONTO YOUR STORYBOARD THAT HELP
EXPLAIN CELLULAR RESPIRATION.
1 PT. EACH
2. YOU MUST USE THE FOLLOWING VOCABULARY WORDS AND MAKE THEM
BOLD:
PHOTOSYNTHESIS
CELLULAR RESPIRATION
ATP
GLUCOSE
MITOCHONDRION
CITRIC ACID CYCLE (KREBS CYCLE)
ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN
½ PT. EACH WORD
3. DEFINE EACH OF THE ABOVE VOCABULARY WORDS ON THE BACK OF YOUR
STORYBOARD.
½ PT. EACH WORD
4. YOU MUST DRAW IN THE THREE END PRODUCT MOLECULES.
1 PT. EACH
5. YOU MUST USE THE SUMMARY BIOCHEMICAL EQUATION FOR RESPIRATION.
1 PT. EACH
6. YOU MUST NUMBER THE SIX STORYBOARD SQUARES SO THAT THE READER
WILL BE ABLE TO FOLLOW THEM IN THE CORRECT SEQUENCE.
1 PT. EACH
TOTAL 20 PTS.
My previous two posts are the Storyboards for Photosynthesis: The Light Reactions and the Calvin Cycle.
My next post will be the storyboards for Protein Synthesis.
