LESSON PLAN – DAY 1 Topic: Human Heredity Name: Michael Pomeroy Class: Biology A Grade Level: 10th Grade Major Concepts: Human Chromosomes: karyotypes, sex chromosomes, autosomes, Human Traits: pedigree charts, environment and genes Human Genes: blood groups, recessive allele diseases DNA and Disease: Cystic Fibrosis, Sickle Cell Disease Performance Objective / Content Standards: California Standards 2a-g, 3a-c Complete an outline of Section 14-1, and define all vocabulary terms. Outline of Lesson: WARMUP (pg 341) (10 minutes) 1) There are how many pairs of chromosomes in the human genome? How many total chromosomes? 2) How many of those chromosomes determine the sex of the individual? Males have which sex chromosomes? Females have which sex chromosomes? OUTLINE/READ: (45 min) 1) Section 14-1 pg 341-348 2) Section 14-2 pg 349-354 VOCABULARY (25 min) 1) Section 14-1 pg 341 2) Section 14-2 pg 349 Homework: 1) Section Assessment 14-1 pg 348 Answer questions 1-4 2) Section Assessment 14-2 pg 353 Answer questions 1-5 References: “Biology,” Prentice Hall, 2007 LESSON PLAN – DAY 2 Topic: Human Chromosomes Name: Michael Pomeroy Class: Biology A Grade Level: 10th Grade Major Concepts: Human Genes and Chromosomes: Chromosome 21 and 22 Sex-Linked Genes: Colorblindness, Hemophilia, Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy X-Chromosome Inactivation Chromosomal Disorders: Down Syndrome, Turner’s Syndrome, Klinefelter’s Syndrome Performance Objective / Content Standards: California Standards 2a-g, 3a-c Complete an outline of Section 14-2 and 14-3, and complete definition of all vocabulary terms in Chapter 14. Outline of Lesson: WARMUP (5 min) 1) How many genes are located on Chromosome 22? What diseases are associated with Chromosome 22? 2) A couple marries but are concerned that they may carry recessive alleles for Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Before they begin to have children, how may they test to see if they carry the recessive alleles? OUTLINE/READ (30 min) 1) Complete Section 14-2 pg 349-353 2) Section 14-3 pg 355-360 VOCABULARY (20 min) 1) Section 14-1 pg 341 2) Section 14-2 pg 349 3) Section 14-3 pg 355 CORE QUESTIONS (Group Activity) (20 min) 1) Write core questions for all of Chapter 14 in your binder. 2) Transfer to your Composition Book. Write questions/answers in composition book. Homework: Section Assessment 14-3: Answer questions 1-5 References: “Biology,” Prentice Hall, 2007 LESSON PLAN – DAY 3 Topic: Sex-linked Traits and Cumulative Review Name: Michael Pomeroy Class: Biology A Grade Level: 10th Grade Major Concepts: Review previous concepts. Sex-linked traits activity. Performance Objective / Content Standards: California Standards 2a-g, 3a-c Transfer the core questions (developed from your reading and class discussion) to your composition book. Outline of Lesson: WARMUP 1) Describe a pedigree chart. How are males, females, and those affected with a trait represented? 2) How do we test for the presence of certain alleles? What is a DNA probe? CORE QUESTIONS Individually, take your completed core question list from your binder, and finish answering the questions in your composition book. LAB GROUP ACTIVITY: Perform the lab and complete the data sheet: “How is colorblindness transmitted?” Homework: Complete lab activity analysis and conclusions. References: Activity adapted from Lab on page 351 of textbook. I personally generated the data sheet and analysis questions. Textbook: “Biology,” Prentice Hall, 2007 LESSON PLAN – DAY 4 Topic: Alternate Learning Modes: Drawing and Songwriting Name: Michael Pomeroy Class: Biology A Grade Level: 10th Grade Major Concepts: Karyotypes; X-linked genes; Non-disjunction. Performance Objective / Content Standards: California Standards 2a-g, 3a-c Students successfully complete drawings and labels; Students in a group write a song or poem about Chapter 14 topics. Outline of Lesson: WARMUP (10 min) ILLUSTRATE/LABEL (40 min) a) Karyotpes: Figure 14-1 pg 341 b) Albinism inheritance pedigree: Problem Solving pg 343 c) Sex-linked genes: Figure 14-12 pg 350 d) Non-disjunction: Figure 14-14 pg 352 SONG/POETRY WRITING (30) Within your table group, first assign roles: Leader, poet, musician, art director. As a group, pick a maximum of three main concepts from Chapter 14 and write a song or set a poem to music. You will perform your song on Friday. References: Textbook: “Biology,” Prentice Hall, 2007 LESSON PLAN – DAY 5 Topic: Weekly Exam Name: Michael Pomeroy Class: Biology A Grade Level: 10th Grade Major Concepts: Attempt to assess all main concepts using an exam and song performance. Performance Objective / Content Standards: California Standards 2a-g, 3a-c Students successfully complete exam, and complete most of the essay questions. Students perform a song teaching others about specific topics. Outline of Lesson: WARMUP (10 min) 1) What is the probability that a couple will have a male child? Explain your reasoning. 2) Why is red-green colorblindness much more common among males than females? 3) Explain how hemophilia is inherited. 4) What genetic condition causes Down’s Syndrome? 5) What is DNA fingerprinting and how does it work? EXAM (25 min) REDISTRIBUTE EXAM AND GRADE AS CLASS (10 min) SONG PERFORMANCE (30 min) 1) Students perform songs in their groups. 2) Each student completes a critique of each performance. References: Exam generated using “Exam View” Prentice Hall, 2007 I wrote additional essay questions targeting topics covered in the Activity Lab.
