  • ONLINE LEARNING

    Learning Intentions
    We are exploring cell division and DNA to explain how we are each unique. 

    Success Criteria

    1. Explain in some detail the process of cell division (mitosis and meiosis) and when each process is required

    2. Compare and contrast the significance of mitosis and meiosis for genetic variation (why we are all unique).

    3. Describe key terms: inheritance, traits, dominant, recessive, allele, 


    Activities

    Week 7 --  **Carry on from Week 6** Refer to the Tic-Tac-Toe document for cell division posted in Google Classroom.  Again, there is a combination of literacy, interactive and hands-on activities. 

    - Complete 2x activities on mitosis

    - Complete 2x activities on meiosis

    TWO Google Meets (Tuesday - mitosis and Thursday - meiosis) 

    Mitosis - putting images in order

    Mitosis

    FOCUS / ARONGA

    FOCUS / ARONGA learning intentions:

    • We are FOCUSING...on describing the cell division processes so we can explain why each individual is genetically unique
    • We are FOCUSING...on clarifying what genetic traits are so we can discuss how genes are inherited
