Week of November 5 - 9

Monday - Learning Objective: Continue from Thurs/Fri

9-12 INQB Classroom only: Conduct a scientific investigation, choosing a method appropriate to the question being asked.

Classwork: Part II of Explore, pages 342-343, Explain, pages 346 - 350 p/p 1

Homework: explore, page 352, p/p 2-3

Tuesday - Learning Objective:

9-12 INQD Reports

Assessed in INQB and Classroom: Write a detailed laboratory report that includes: the question that motivated the study, a justification for the kind of investigation chosen, hypotheses (if any), a description of what was done, a summary of data in tables and graphs, and a conclusion, based on the evidence, that responds to the question.

Classwork:  Finish Explore Part II, finish lab write-up and share findings

Homework: Explore, page 352, p/p 4 - 6

Wednesday: Learning Objective

9-11 LS1I Meiosis, Fertilization, and Offspring Variation
	(1)   Describe the relationship between the unique combination of genetic information in an egg or sperm cell and the differing characteristics in offspring from a single set of parents.
	(2)   Describe possible allele combinations in an egg or sperm cell given a combination of two traits and a parent’s genotype for the two traits.
	(3)   Describe the possible combinations of offspring in a simple Mendelian genetic cross for two traits (e.g., given a Punnett square for two traits, fill in one missing cell).

Classwork: Review Information from reading

Homework: None

Thursday/Friday:  Learning Objective:

9-11 LS1I Meiosis, Fertilization, and Offspring Variation	(4)   Describe the process of meiosis (e.g., each egg or sperm cell receives only one representative chromosome from each pair of chromosomes found in the original cell) and/or product of meiosis (e.g., egg and sperm cells with only one set of chromosomes).
	(5)   Describe that the processes of recombination during meiosis (e.g., segregation, independent assortment) result in a unique combination of genetic information in the egg or sperm cell.
	(6)   Describe the relationship between the unique combination of genetic information in an egg or sperm cell and the differing characteristics in offspring from a single set of parents.

Classwork: Explore - pages 355 - 365 Meiosis
