Assignment

Week 11  (second 9 weeks) Oct. 15-19

TTW=the teacher will

TSW=the student will

INB=interactive notebook

*students will put their cell phones in the cell phone parking lot everyday upon walking in the room

*students will start their bell ringers upon walking in the room everyday

*additional time each day will be spent on reviewing vocabulary words (by themselves, with Kahoot, in a group, or verbally as a group)

 

Standards

BIO.1E.1  Construct models to explain how the processes of cell division and cell differentiation produce and maintain complex multicellular organisms.

BIO.1E.2  Identify and describe the changes that occur in a cell during replication.  Explore problems that might occur if he cell does not progress through the cycle correctly (cancer).

BIO.3C.1  Develop and use models to explain the relationship between DNA, genes, and chromosomes in coding the instructions for the traits transferred from parent to offspring.

BIO.3C.2  Evaluate the mechanisms of transcription and translation in protein synthesis.
