Curated OER
Sexual Reproduction and Meiosis
In this biology learning exercise, 9th graders label each of the diagrams representing the stages of meiosis. Then they describe how gametes vary from other cells in the body. Students also explain what happens during the process of...
Curated OER
Meiosis and Sexual Reproduction
Eighth graders are able to define meiosis. They are able to compare and contrast meiosis and mitosis. Students are able to state the phases of meiosis. They complete a K-W-L chart on meiosis and mitosis. Students talk about meiosis...

MITOSIS
Tenth graders examine the process of mitosis on a laser disc. They examine mitosis in an onion utilizing the microscope.
Curated OER
Discovering Mitosis in Onion Roots
Students discover the different stages of mitosis by examining onion roots under a microscope, drawing diagrams of what they see, and organizing collected data in a chart and create a pie graph from their lab data.
Curated OER
Where Are The Dinosaurs?
Students study what happened to the dinosaurs and possible causes of extinction. In this investigative lesson students create dinosaur eggs.
