  1. Create a map of the areas that visitors will see on the trip.
  • Your map should show where the chloroplast sits inside a plant cell, and how you will get there.
  • Provide a map legend which gives close-up pictures of significant landmarks (stroma, thylakoids, grana, outer membranes, chlorophyll)
  • Describe what visitors can expect to see at each location on a separate sheet of paper. Your descriptions should include information covered in the class relating to the light and light-indepdent reactions and the parts of the chloroplast.

       3. The links below provide pictures of amusement park maps that you can use to design your map:
