Reward biology learners for working hard in their mitosis lesson with a sweet snack at the end! They begin by twisting apart creme-filled cookies and using the icing as a cytoplasm. Colored candy sprinkles make up chromosome pairs,...

Students examine cell division and the process of mitosis.  In this cell reproduction lesson students grow yeast and observe the results, and learn about the career of scientific illustration. 

Identify the different stages of mitosis and what occurs in each stage with a straightforward biology lesson plan. Young scientists identify the importance of the cell cycle control in maintaining homeostasis, and then match the...

Learners learn the processes of cell division, both somatic and sexual through lecture. They participate in an Internet lesson to strenghten their understanding of mitosis and meiosis.

Students witness various stages of mitosis through preparing onion root tip slides. With teacher guidance, they learn a great deal through the hands-on process of preparing the slides themselves.

Students identify the structures that actually assort independently. They are taught how gene maps are produced. Students compare the processes of mitosis and meiosis. They are shown their (mitosis and meiosis) significane to sexual...

In this cell reproduction worksheet, learners complete a crossword puzzle with 43 questions about mitosis and meiosis. They compare and contrast the two processes.

Learners create a movie of animal cell mitosis. They draw steps regarding the stages of cell mitosis. They add beginnings, movie titles, and ending credits. They present the movie to their teacher.

Students create an animation of a cell process and insert it into a presentation. They choose a cellular process such as mitosis, osmosis or DNA replication, and create a simple 2D animation.

Students read an article on sharks prior to beginning a dissection lab. As part of the lab, students identify differences between the shark anatomy and human anatomy and hypothesize why those differences exist.

Students model and differentiate between the processes of mitosis and meiosis. In partners, they use yarn and construction paper to create models for each of the phases of mitosis and meiosis then compare the chromosome numbers in each...

In this development worksheet, students compare the characteristics of mitosis and meiosis. Students review the male and female reproductive organs and their functions. This worksheet has 4 graphic organizer, 6 short answer, and 16 fill...

Bring the excitement of genetics to scholars with a dynamic hands-on meiosis modeling experience. During the activity, biologists follow step-by-step procedures to build chromosomes, model independent assortment, learn about crossing...

Learners compare and contrast the processes of spermatogenesis and oogenesis. This lesson uses the KWL+ strategy to promote reading. The + used here is the Venn diagram.

Students explore genetics through various hands-on activities. For this biology lesson, students predict the probability of offspring genotypes and phenotypes using the Punnett Square. They explain the causes of genetic abnormalities.

Learners create a model of DNA and simulate replication with their models in an activity that uses licorice, colored marshmallows, and toothpicks. Students also label a diagram of replication and indicate major parts of the DNA molecule.

Students study genetic traits using popsicle sticks as chromosomes. In this biology lesson, students explain how traits are inherited from parents. They differentiate dominant and recessive genes.

Students predict the number of cells after a series of cell divisions.  In this cells lesson students create a graph of their results and create a patterned drawing. 

Students model the plasticity of neural pathways for memory in the brain. They simulate the cell activity according to dots on cards that they are given. They complete various simulations of different cell combinations.

In this lesson, students use hands-on activities and journaling to learn about the process of mitosis, meiosis and cell differentiation. Hands-on activities include modeling of the mitosis and meiosis processes with model building and...
