DNA: The Search for the Genetic Material
Young scholars study the history of DNA and how to extract it. In this genetic lesson plan students complete a DNA experiment using bacteria.
Curated OER
Dragon Genetics-Independent Assortment and Genetic Linkage
Students build chromosome models using popsicle sticks. In this biology lesson, students simulate the Law of Independent Assortment. They use Punnett squares to predict the resulting genotype and phenotype.
Curated OER
Dragon Genetics Lab-Principles of Mendelian Genetics
Students study genetic traits using popsicle sticks as chromosomes. For this biology lesson, students explain how traits are inherited from parents. They differentiate dominant and recessive genes.
Curated OER
Spermatogenesis versus Oogenesis
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.
Curated OER
Stem Cell Bioethics
Students study the steps of embryonic development. They distinguish between the advantages/disadvantages of embryonic stem cells vs. adult stem cells and discuss the ethical implications of stem cell research.
Curated OER
What Are the Most Recent Developments in Animal and Human Cloning?
Students research the developments of animal and human cloning. They report their findings to the class. They write journal entries as well.
Curated OER
Homologous Shoes
Students examine the concept of homology by observing their shoes and those of their classmates. They summarize the observations of everyone's shoes relating it to chromosomes in cells. They share their observations with the class.

A Spool Of Thread
Students describe a spool of light colored thread that the teacher holds in his/her hands. They are asked what substances (cotton and wood) are present and what structures (thread and spool) are present. The teacher conclude that the...

Human Development: The First Trimester & Developmental Malformations
Students, analyze and discuss cleft lip, cleft palate, anencephaly, spina bifida and septal defects in the heart--well-known malformations that can occur in the first trimester of prenatal devalopment. They play the review game, Fetal...
Curated OER
Gametogenesis and Fertilization
Students explore how this module focuses on part of the cycle of alternation of generations: meiosis to produce haploid spores and fertilization to produce a diploid zygote which grows into the adult plant.
Curated OER
Heredity (Mendelian Genetics)
Students observe and record observations of whether a person is a taster or nontaster. They test selected individuals from their families and peer groups and chart all findings to determine which trait (e.g. taster or non-taster) is...
Curated OER
DNA, Genes, and Chromosomes
Learners review the structure and function of DNA, genes, and chromosomes and are engaged by a demonstration illustrating the relative size of DNA, genes and chromosomes. They also describe through analogy and model the structure and...
Curated OER
Cell Cycle Duration
Students examine the cell cycle and how its duration can vary. In this cells lesson students complete a worksheet and answer questions.
Curated OER
Drosophila Melanogaster
Students cross wild type flies and mutants, both purchased from a biological supply house (Carolina Biological Supply or Wards, for example) in groups from activity one.
Curated OER
How Sensitive Are The Lungs to Radon?
Students examine the effects of radon on the lungs. They review pictures of the lungs on a large and small scale. They work together to answer questions to complete the lesson.
Curated OER
AN EMBRYOLOGY PLACE MAT
High schoolers create a place mat to attain the following objectives: determine the important ideas, concepts, and definitions relating to a list of embryological terms. Match the terms with their definitions and create short quizzes for...
Curated OER
Excavating the Past
Students discover how palaeontologists conduct a dig for fossils and how they interpret the age of the fossils. In small groups, they prepare a "dig site" consisting of bones, rocks and soil layered in a cardboard box. They switch boxes...

Nearpod: Cell Cycle & Mitosis
In this lesson on the cell cycle and mitosis, students will explore interphase and states of mitosis by learning key vocabulary terms and visuals related to these processes.
Alabama Learning Exchange
Alex: Mitosis: Divide to Survive
This instructional activity includes a Power Point presentation that will guide the young scholars through an investigation of mitosis, or cellular division. The instructional activity will review the basic functions and parts of animal...
PBS
Pbs Learning Media: Cellular Structure and Function
This lesson plan provides an exploration of the structure and function of the cell in organisms. Students will consider the cell as a common unit of life, mitosis, and cell specialization. Includes links to multimedia resources.
