Lesson topic Heredity and Variation

Teacher Ms. J. Gavin

Date Feb, 2019.
Grade/Class 11 TAR/ 11 H
Instructional Time 4 Session (2hr)- 9:15-11:15
General Objective Understand the mechanisms by which characteristics pass from parent
to offspring;
Teaching Discussion, and Video Presentation
Methodology
Prior Knowledge Before completing this lesson, student should have a basic
understanding of the following standards:
1. Compare and contrast processes of sexual and asexual
reproduction.
2. Types of the cells, plant and animal. Students should be able to
identify structures of a cell. Students should be familiar with
the functions of these organelles: nucleus, cell membrane, cell
wall, nuclear membrane, and cytoplasm.

Specific Lesson At the end of this lesson, students should be able to:
Objectives 1. Define mitosis and meiosis
2. Describe the process of mitosis
3. Explain three importance/uses of mitosis in organisms
Lesson Vocabulary Chromosomes
Chromatid
Diploid
Materials Human and Social Biology Textbook, Markers, Erasers
Engage Students will be asked the following guiding questions to begin the
lesson:
1. How does a baby grow from an infant state to adulthood?
 The students will watch a you-tube video on Mitosis Stages
Explore The video will highlight the importance of mitosis
.

Explain The teacher will continue with the PowerPoint from above.

The teacher will read the first slide and the teacher will randomly
select a student to read the next slide.

This alternating process will continue through the end of the

PowerPoint. As the slides in the PowerPoint are displayed the teacher
should instruct students to record the important processes in the cell
cycle and the phases of mitosis in their science notebook. The teacher
will identify the key points after each slide is read aloud to ensure
students record the most important information. A structured
notetaking guide can also be provided for students.

The bellwork, lecture and notetaking will take about 45 minutes. The
teacher will review these notes with students to ensure they have the
correct information.

Students will be asked to volunteer to share their answers with the

class. Students should gather the following facts from the video:
