Chromosome Shuffle

Students demonstrate mitosis as a class with pvc 'chromosomes'. In this mitosis lesson, students explore the phases of the cell cycle. They work together to demonstrate the cellular process with rope, cords, and pvc pipes.

Students study the processes of meiosis and mitosis.  In this chromosome instructional activity students participate in an activity that students role play the parts of a cell then create one. 

Students investigate how cells divide during mitosis and meiosis. In this activity, students role play the different parts of the cells. They identify the function of each organelles.

Cells divide by one of two processes, either mitosis or meiosis. Scholars sort cards into two sets, one representing each type of cell division. Then, they sequence the cards demonstrating an understanding of the movement of chromosomes.

In this evolution worksheet, students review the ideas expressed by Darwin, gene pools, genetic variation, single-gene and polygenic traits, and natural selection. This worksheet has 9 fill in the blank, 5 multiple choice, and 3 matching...

These aren't the type of jeans you can buy at a local store! Help your class understand what determines if you're a girl or a boy. Show this cartoon representation of how a male and a female's chromosomes shuffle, divide, and recombine...

Some genes link to others that have implications for inheritance. A set of resources lead pupils through the history of this discovery. They explain how chromosomes recombine and which parts are more susceptible to this linkage....

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...
