Biology PAP Lesson Plan
10/6
5A(R): SWBAT Describe the
stages of the cell cycle,
including DNA replication and
mitosis, and the importance of
the cell cycle to the growth of
organisms.
5D(S): SWBAT recognize that
disruptions of the cell cycle lead
to diseases such as cancer.
Warm-Up: Students will be asked to list
the events that take place during each
stage of the cell cycle.
Guided Practice:



4C(R): SWBAT compare the
structure of viruses to cells,
describe viral reproduction, and
describe the role of viruses
causing diseases such as
human immunodeficiency virus
(HIV) and influenza.
