Monday 12/8 We will define heredity as the passing of genetic instructions from one generation to the next Objectives: Guided & Independent Practices: Guided Practice: Teacher will facilitate student activities while practicing using PUNNETT SQUARES to determine the outcome of many different crosses. Independent Practice: Students will engage in different activities to help them acquire the ability to take any situation in a word problem and set up a genetic cross to figure out what the outcome should be (phenotypic & genotypic) Tuesday 12/9 We will recognize that traits are governed in DNA found in the genes which are found on chromosomes which are in the nucleus Wednesday 12/10 We will define heredity as the passing of genetic instructions from one generation to the next Thursday 12/11 We will define heredity as the passing of genetic instructions from one generation to the next & we will see that traits are governed by DNA which is found in genes which are found on chromosomes which are in the nucleus. Friday 12/12 Contrast situations where work is done with different amounts of force to situations where no work is done such as with a ramp & without a ramp, or standing still. DISTANCE = 0; WORK IS NONE Guided Practice: Guided Practice: Guided Practice: Guided Practice: Teacher will continue to give real world examples of how dominant and recessive traits determine appearance by using word problems. Teacher will monitor students as they work together in reviewing the genetics unit. Teacher will monitor students as they show their understanding and comprehension of genetics and inheritance while taking their formative assessment. Teacher will facilitate review unit test and introduce work and simple machines. Independent Practice: Students will be able to perform a genetic cross from a given situation. IF students are given outcomes, they will also be able to work backwards to figure out the parental genotype. Students will take QUIZ. Independent Practice: Students will collaboratively work to finish their review sheets in order to better prepare for their exam on Thursday. Independent Practice: Students will demonstrate the ability to analyze and set up many different situations on their assessment using genetics and inheritance theories. TEST Independent Practice: Students will review genetics test and then begin learning how simple machines make work easier. Students will apply a formula to determine work when given a force and a distance. Students will watch a short video clip demonstrating this concept.

Please realize that this is just a plan and may change, nothing is set in stone. Plans may change if there is an unexpected absences, I find more effective material, technology or copier malfunctions, etc. Assessment: Closure: I thank you for your understanding; everything I do is in the best interest of the students!!
