This is a quick activity to get students moving as well as to think about the fluidity of membranes. Typical classrooms may not be the best setting; using the school gym or going outside on a nice day would be a better option if you wish to model something like endocytosis or mitosis.

This is a great activity. I plan on incorporating it into my Human Anatomy & Physiology course when we talk about cell membranes and transport proteins. It is an activity that can easily be shortened or lengthened depending on how much content and time an instructor has.
Some more ideas about how to have students act out the parts of the membrane proteins would be great.
