Unit/Lesson Title/Number: Genetics Genes Lesson #4-Quiz Day/Bill Nye Video 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 recall the definition of DNA and what its role in the human body is. 2. Students will be able to differentiate between traits that are controlled by one gene and traits that are controlled by many genes. 3. Students will be able to explain that each organism has a different number of chromosomes and that these chromosomes come in pairs. 4. Students will be able to differentiate between the genotype and phenotype of an organism. 5. Students will be able to relate (synthesis) the vocabulary from this lesson to their lives. 6. Students will be able to illustrate (analyze) the vocabulary.

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

The students will be taking a quiz today. The teacher will allow students with test accommodations to leave. When all of the students are done with the quiz and the students with accommodations have returned, the teacher will start the Bill Nye video on genes. The students should not be talking and the teacher will be checking to make sure that all of the students are actually watching the video.

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

1. Quiz (summative)-the quiz will be collected and graded. Feedback will be given on the quizzes and the class will go over them once they have been handed back. The questions on the quiz cover all of the standards that have been used so far.

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

SMART Board, PowerPoint

Academic Language required for the lesson

Students will need to remember all of the genetics vocabulary theyve learned up to this point.

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

There are 5 students with IEPs who leave the classroom 1st period to take quizzes/tests. An extra copy will be sent with these students for the quiz reader.
