Title: Biology Digital Agenda Date: 2/22/2012 Essential question(s): (answer the corresponding highlighted question(s) 1.) What are the sources of evidence for evolution? 2.) Is there enough scientific evidence to prove evolution as a theory? 3.) How do genetic changes in a gene pool cause evolution? 4.) What is the relationship between natural selection and evolution? 5.) Who was Charles Darwin and what did he discover about evolution? Teacher: Astor Date: 2/22/2012 Subject/Course: Biology Grade: 9-10 Do Now: Do-Now 2/22-students will independently research and answer several short questions on evolution, focusing on natural selection and the genetics of evolution.____ CA Standard(s): BI.7 a. Students know why natural selection acts on the phenotype rather than the genotype of an organism. BI. 8. a. Students know how natural selection determines the differential survival of groups of organisms. BI. 8. b. Students know a great diversity of species increase the chance that at least some organisms will survive major changes in the environment BI. 8. e Students know how to analyze fossil evidence with regard to biological diversity, episodic speciation, and mass extinction. Learning Objective (s): SWBAT… Explain how natural selection determines the differential survival of groups of organisms. Analyze multiple sources of evidence for evolution. Explain how a great diversity of species increase the chance that at least some organisms will survive major changes in the environment Analyze fossil evidence with regard to biological diversity, episodic speciation, and mass extinction. Assessment: Evolution Quiz II 8a, 8b, 7a, 7d- students will be given a multiple choice assessment on standards 8a, 8b, 7a, 7 d. Exit Slips-students will complete multiple choice items on standards 8.a, 8.b Evidence of Evolution Essay-students will analyze multiple sources Benchmark III.- March 26-March 30 Bloom’s level of this assessment: Quizzes and Exit Slips-Comprehension, Synthesis, Analysis Daily Agenda: (check off each assignment after completion) Do-Now 2/22-students will independently research and answer several short questions on evolution, focusing on natural selection and the genetics of evolution.____ Review- (Direct Instruction) PPT/Interactive Notes-The Genetics of Evolution-students will complete interactive notes on the PPT listed above by editing, highlighting, and posing further questions. The students will then answer several short questions on the information they learned.____ (Collaborative Station) Investigating an Anole Lizard Population-students will in small groups collaboratively model the effect of a predator on the gene pool of anole lizards. They will then answer several analysis questions.___ (Independent Station) Analysis of Evidence Evolution Essay-(Final Draft)-students will in small groups work on the final draft of their essay by completing the working drat template.___ Practice: (Independent Station) Analysis of Evidence Evolution Essay-(Final Draft)-students will in small groups work on the final draft of their essay by completing the working drat template. How will students reflect on what they’ve learned? Exit Slip 8a, 8b
