Unit/Lesson Title/Number: Genetics Genes Lesson #2-Homework review and Vocab Context and Class Profile 1st Period- 5 IEPs, 16 students 2nd Period- 1 IEP, 15 students

Common Core Standards

Assessed: 2.1a Heredity information is contained in genes. Genes are composed of DNA that makes up the chromosomes of cells 2.1b Each gene carries a single unit of information. A single inherited trait of an individual can be determined by one pair or by many pairs of genes. A human cell contains thousands of different genes. 2.1c Each human cell contains a copy of all the genes needed to produce a human being. 2.2a In all organisms, genetic traits are passed on from generation to generation 2.3.3 Explain the impact of the use and abuse of electronically generated information on individuals and families

Interdisciplinary Connections

Strongly connected to biology.

Lesson Objectives
Label : (Blooms Taxonomy)

1. Students will be able to relate (synthesis) the vocabulary from this lesson to their lives. 2. Students will be able to illustrate (analyze) the vocabulary.

Must be numbered

Acceptable Evidence
*Could be collected for accountability and/or auditing purposes.

1. Worksheet 2. Worksheet

Procedure Teacher input, development, instructional method(s), modeling, guided practice, independent practice, and/or activities

The students will come in and open to the chapter 16 homework. The teacher will circulate to make sure that every student has completed the homework. They will get credit for completing it. The teacher will lead the class in discussing the homework. They will go over each question. The students should be correcting their answers if they are incorrect or incomplete. The teacher will ask the students if there are any other questions pertaining to the homework. The teacher will introduce the worksheet that the students will be working on. There are 10 vocab words that the students have learned already for this lesson. They will be defining the vocab in their own words, drawing a picture, and relating the vocab word to something in their lives. The teacher will have an example prepared to show the students so that they have an idea of what to do. The teacher will circulate while the students are working and provide help if needed. The students will be given the period to work on the worksheet. If the class goes faster than expected, a video will be prepared for them to watch.

(CFU directions) Label: Evidence of Cognitive Student Engagement (CSE) Label: Closure

Assessment/ Evaluation
Label formative or summative, describe purpose, and provide grading/feedback method.

1. Homework (formative)-the teacher will not collect the homework but instead will give it a grade based on completeness. Based on the student responses while going over the homework, the teacher will determine whether or not the students need extra explanation on any of the material. 2. Worksheet (formative)-the worksheet will be collected at the end of class and feedback will be written directly on the worksheet before being handed back the next day. It will not be given a grade.

Technology
Describe type and purpose. Include a back-up plan.

SMART Board, PowerPoint

Academic Language required for the lesson

Students will need to know what DNA is and that on chromosomes there are genes and alleles. They will also learn the difference between genotype and phenotype.

Accommodations, Student Supports, and/or Interactions with Co-Teachers and/or Support Staff

Resources/ Materials

Homework from Measuring Up to the New York State Standards Level H Science Handouts for in-class activity

Time Required
