What educators are saying

In addition to this resource, I own the physical science interactive all year resource and just like that one, this is an excellent resource. I am teaching an integrated science for the first time in 19 years. These small pieces allow me to choose the ones I need for my new curriculum.
I love these resources. They make it easy for me to not have to plan as much, and everything I need is in one place.

Description

The Life Science Interactive Notebook: Genetics: The Science of Heredity chapter showcase student’s ability to:

  • Explain how scientists use the principles of probability
  • Construct and understand Punnett squares
  • Describe the principle of independent assortment
  • Identify and explain steps of meiosis
  • Differentiate meiosis from mitosis
  • Describe the work of Gregor Mendel the Father of Genetics and his use of pea plants in genetics

Each activity enables students to process the information given by the teacher then allows them to use self-direction to apply their new knowledge. The engaging activities always vary in order for all students to use and benefit from different learning styles. Activities included correlating with the Next Generation Science Standards.

  • Punnett Squares
  • Meiosis

Activities include:

  • Drawing of a “Dohickey Bug” that comes from alleles that produce genes for eight different traits. Students will need to identify genotype and phenotype which help them learn Law of Segregation and Law of Independent Assortment
  • Punnett square practice – homozygous and heterozygous alleles are defined along with genotype and phenotype
  • Meiosis is compared to mitosis where students need to understand the following terms: gamete, body cell, diploid, haploid, and chromosomes

Each concept shares:

  • Actual photos of both the INPUT and OUTPUT pages of Science Interactive Notebook
  • Instructions on how to create/use/complete activity for OUTPUT side
  • Mini-Quizzes for each concept to check students’ understanding
