Subject Area: Science
Grade: 912
Body of Knowledge: Life Science
Standard: Heredity and Reproduction A. DNA stores and transmits genetic information. Genes are sets of instructions encoded in the
structure of DNA.
B. Genetic information is passed from generation to generation by DNA in all organisms and
accounts for similarities in related individuals.

Description
After reading the sections and/or chapter on the concept of the cell
cycle, including mitosis, the students will be guided through the
process of making a picture book. This picture book will enhance

the students' knowledge of what occurs within the cell structures as
it moves through all the stages of the cell cycle. This book will then
be shared with other students and/or the teacher to demonstrate that
each student can accurately describe the process of the cell cycle.
The lesson addresses the phases of the cell cycle and mitosis

cell cycle, and then use this information to draw a pie graph that
will predict the percentage of time spent in each stage.
The goal of this lesson is to introduce students to the human cell

and its DNA as the genetic information that governs how the cell
will function.
Getting Tangled with Yarn
and the Cell Cycle
Students will use different yarn colors to illustrate the cell cycle,
including interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis.
Then, they will present their assignments in front of the class and
complete a post-lesson worksheet.

Phases of the Cell Cycle
Students will model stages of mitosis and meiosis using yarn. By
the end of the lesson, the students will be able to recognize the
difference between mitosis and meiosis, know what type of cells
are produced from mitosis and meiosis, and how many new cells
are created at the end of each process.
Making Mitosis with Yarn
This lesson is designed for student with mild/moderate disabilities
enrolled in an Access class or in the inclusion classroom with
assistance from the support facilitation teacher or possibly an
Advanced Placement Biology student.
This lesson requires the students to simulate the movement of
chromosomes during mitosis and meiosis using different-colored
pipe cleaners. The pipe cleaners allow the instructor to highlight
both recombination (crossing over) and independent assortment,

Assortment
This lesson plan includes excellent teacher support in the form of
videos that explain how the pipe cleaners should be manipulated to
demonstrate the concepts of mitosis, meiosis, and independent
assortment.
During this lesson, students will watch animated videos to provide
a visual representation of the different phases of mitosis to
Modeling Mitosis
reinforce the essential content being taught. Students will model the
process of mitosis to demonstrate that cells repeatedly divide for
growth and repair and daughter cells are identical to the parent cell.
In this lesson students will explore the cell cycle and cell division.
They will utilize Power Point presentations, videos and interactive

Mitosis
Description
This tutorial will allow the student to model the process of making
a karyotype which is a picture of all the chromosomes in a cell.
Students will match each pair of chromosomes by their size, the
size and location of chromosome bands, and location of the
centromere.
Mitosis is the process by which a cell duplicates the chromosomes
in its cell nucleus, in order to generate two, identical, daughter
nuclei. This tutorial will help the learners understand the process of
mitosis. The learners can also understand the terms with the
glossary provided in the animation.
This tutorial discusses the process of mitosis in detail, describing
the events that occur during interphase, prophase, metaphase,
