Prepare bunches of colored cards, a different color to represent ADP, ATP, NAD+, NADH, FAD+ and FADH2. This currency can be distributed as you present each stage of cellular respiration. For example, a bacteria cell ready for fermentation starts with two ATPs and two NAD+. Take the two ATPs to start glycolysis. Then take the two NAD+ and give out two NADH and four ATPs. When you try to run through glycolysis again, there are no NAD+. After alcoholic fermentation occurs, trade the two NADH for two NAD+ and do another glycolysis reaction. Aerobic respiration can be done in a similar manner.
