Lesson#3


Title: How Cells Divide

Grades: 9-12

Time 45

Standards:

·         Describe and explain the structures and functions of the human body at different organize- tonal levels (e.g., systems, tissues, cells, organelles).

·         Major Understanding’s 1.2a important levels of organization for structure and function include organelles, cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, and whole organisms.

·         1.2c the components of the human body, from organ systems to cell organelles, interact to maintain a balanced internal environment. To successfully accomplish this, organisms possess a diversity of control mechanisms that detect deviations and make corrective actions.

·         1.2e the organs and systems of the body help to provide all the cells with their basic needs. The cells of the body are of different kinds and are grouped in ways that enhance how they function together.

·         1.2f Cells have particular structures that perform specific jobs. These structures per- form the actual work of the cell. Just as systems are coordinated and work together, cell parts must also be coordinated and work together.

  • CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RST.11-12.1 Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of science and technical texts, attending to important distinctions the author makes and to any gaps or inconsistencies in the account.

·         CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RST.11-12.5 Analyze how the text structures information or ideas into categories or hierarchies, demonstrating understanding of the information or ideas

Materials: smart board, lap tops, mitosis diagrams map, color pencils, 5 lap tops, multimedia text-How Cells divide-PBS/NOVA


Goal: students will know each sequence stages of mitosis and be able to explain each stage as they occurs.

Essential Questions:

·         Why must a cell divide?

·         Explain mitosis and why it happens?

·         What happens to the nuclear membrane during mitosis?

·         Explain the final stage Mitosis and give details-

Students Will:

·         Understand why cells divide and not just get bigger

·         Understand the sequence division of a cell

·         Explain what happens to the nucleus during division

·         Describe what happens in the final stage of mitosis

 

Performance task:

·         Mitosis animation, brain pop quiz, accountable talks, group discussions, diagrams, give accountable talk, PBS/NOVA

Other Evidence:

·         Complete animation, diagrams, test-label sequences, accountable talks, group’s presentations

Learning Activities:

Connect student to prior knowledge-If cell don’t divide predict what would happen to the organism? Give Students plenty of time to answer the question. Explain that cells have a specific function and part of that function is cellular division for organism survival.

Hook-Show brain pop video and stop at each sequence highlighting the difference. Let student take the short quiz.

Re-aloud from the text pages 322-325 and ask the students question and clear up misunderstandings. Students will take notes while re-aloud text is on the smart board.

Introduce students to NOVA/PBS interactive cite and remind students of inter-net safety.


Student groups will complete mitosis sequence maps using the multimedia text.

Students will organize details of mitosis sequences maps, revise and reflect on detailed information. Share out main, points and ideas of text details in groups.

For differential instruction-lower level groups will be paired with higher leveled students. Quite student will be given plenty of time to solve problems and turn and talk sharing ideas. Brain pop, multimedia text, mitosis sequence maps and group presentations.

For closure student will present sequence maps and details of findings.
