ELA standards and matching activity are highlighted in yellow. Janell Toney Grade Science Lesson Plans October 31– November 4, 2016 7th Monday Competency: Heredity and Genetics Standard: Heredity and Genetics 7.3d(c) Mitosis/Meiosis, Structure of DNA/Karyotype. 7.3 Heredity and Genetics 8.3d a. How traits are passed from parents to offspring through pairs of genes. Heredity and Genetics 7.3d d. Historical contributions and significance of discoveries of Gregor Mendel and Thomas Hunt Morgan as related to genetics. Essential Question: Based on Mendel and Morgan’s research, how does the heredity of genes influence phenotypes and genotypes? Focus Question: How does heterozygous and homozygous alleles influence the probability of offsprings? Bellringer: ACT Questions Anticipatory Set: TSW watch a brief video on heredity. Guided Practice: TTW use the video to guide and introduce the lesson. Independent Practice: TSW complete a SpongeBob activity in pairs that reinforces the understanding of heterozygous and homozygous allele combinations and influences. Teacher Input: TTW walk around class to ensure the students are on task and properly managing time. Differentiations: Below Grade Level: Allowing the students to work in pairs will help the students below grade level. One above grade level student will be paired with a below grade level student. The peer teaching method will help accommodate these students. On grade level: These students will have examples provided by the teacher that are derivatives of the activity questions. These examples will guide the students with using the lesson questions. Above Grade Level: These students will model and explain with each activity question requiring them to have and demonstrate a deeper understanding of the lesson. Closure: The activity serves as the exit assessment. Tuesday Competency: Heredity and Genetics Standard: Heredity and Genetics 7.3d(c) Mitosis/Meiosis, Structure of DNA/Karyotype. 7.3 Heredity and Genetics 8.3d a. How traits are passed from parents to offspring through pairs of genes. Heredity and Genetics 7.3d d. Historical contributions and significance of discoveries of Gregor Mendel and Thomas Hunt Morgan as related to genetics. Essential Question: Based on Mendel and Morgan’s research, how does the heredity of genes influence phenotypes and genotypes? ELA standards and matching activity are highlighted in yellow. Focus Question: All previous focus questions Bellringer: ACT Questions Anticipatory Set: TTW explain the process and rules of the Scavenger hunt activity. Guided Practice: Independent Practice: TSW work in teams competing against each other. The team that finds all the matches to the questions, definitions, and examples will win the game. This activity severs as a reinforcement for all the previous concepts covered. Remediation/Enrichment: TTW work with and guide the students during the activity. Teacher Input: TTW walk around and monitor the students ensuring they are managing time and on task. TTW ask certain questions that make connections between previous lessons and the gizmo. Closure: Wednesday Competency: Heredity and Genetics Standard: Heredity and Genetics 7.3d(c) Mitosis/Meiosis, Structure of DNA/Karyotype. 7.3 Heredity and Genetics 8.3d a. How traits are passed from parents to offspring through pairs of genes. Heredity and Genetics 7.3d d. Historical contributions and significance of discoveries of Gregor Mendel and Thomas Hunt Morgan as related to genetics. Essential Question: Based on Mendel and Morgan’s research, how does the heredity of genes influence phenotypes and genotypes? Focus Question: All previous focus questions. Bellringer: Anticipatory Set: Guided Practice: Independent Practice: TSW work independently completing the unit 2.1 assessment. Teacher Input: TTW walk around and monitor the students ensuring they are managing time and on task. Closure: Thursday Competency: Heredity and Genetics Standard: Heredity and Genetics 7.3d(c) Mitosis/Meiosis, Structure of DNA/Karyotype. 7.3 Heredity and Genetics 8.3d a. How traits are passed from parents to offspring through pairs of genes. Heredity and Genetics 7.3d d. Historical contributions and significance of discoveries of Gregor Mendel and Thomas Hunt Morgan as related to genetics. Essential Question: Based on Mendel and Morgan’s research, how does the heredity of genes influence phenotypes and genotypes? Focus Question: How does heredity, genes, and chromosomes relate? How does heterozygous and homozygous alleles influence the probability of offsprings and relate to heredity? Bellringer: ACT Questions ELA standards and matching activity are highlighted in yellow. Anticipatory Set: TSW respond to two engage discussion questions of the gizmo activity. Guided Practice: TTW discuss the two engage gizmo questions with the students. This questions will be used to introduce the gizmo activity and to have the kids understand how to navigate through the gizmo functions. Independent Practice: TSW work independently on laptops exploring the “Mouse Genetics” gizmo. TSW complete the warm-up activity and activity A today. Differentiations: Below Grade Level: TSW model and explain the difference between acquired and inherited traits using examples from the gizmo. TSW also relate the gizmo example to a real-life example. On grade level and Above Grade Level: TSW model and explain the difference between acquired and inherited traits using examples from the gizmo. TSW also relate the gizmo example to a real-life example. TTW ask the students to predict what the offsprings would look like if the parents selected partners for a specific survival trait. TTW also ask if purebred is possible once heterozygous offsprings have been produced. Teacher Input: TTW walk around and monitor the students ensuring they are managing time and on task. TTW ask certain questions that make connections between previous lessons and the gizmo. TTW also questions the demonstrates retention of the lesson and understanding of the difference between acquired traits and inherited traits. Closure: Friday Essential Question: Based on Mendel and Morgan’s research, how does the heredity of genes influence phenotypes and genotypes? Focus Question: How does heredity, genes, and chromosomes relate? How does heterozygous and homozygous alleles influence the probability of offsprings and relate to heredity? Bellringer: Anticipatory Set: Guided Practice: TTW discuss the relationship between heterozygous, homozygous, dominant, codominant, and recessive alleles. TTW remind the students to look for these examples as they explore the “Mouse Genetics” gizmo. Independent Practice: TSW work independently on laptops exploring the gizmo. TSW complete activity B and activity C today. Differentiations: Below Grade Level: TSW model and explain the difference between dominance, codominance, and recessive traits using examples from the gizmo. TSW also relate the gizmo example to a real-life example. On grade level and Above Grade Level: TSW model and explain the difference between dominance, codominance, and recessive traits using examples from the gizmo. TSW also relate the gizmo example to a real-life example. TTW ask the students to predict what the offsprings ELA standards and matching activity are highlighted in yellow. would look like if two codominant organisms mated. TTW also ask if purebred is possible once codominance has occurred. Teacher Input: TTW walk around and monitor the students ensuring they are managing time and on task. TTW ask certain questions that make connections between previous lessons and the gizmo. TTW also questions the demonstrates retention of the lesson and understanding of the difference between acquired traits and inherited traits. Closure: TSW complete the gizmo quiz whole group.
