Assignment Instructions For your midterm develop a lesson plan on Phenotype and Genotype for elementary students. For purposes of this activity, assume you are teaching a fifth grade class. Design your lesson plan with the following elements / questions in mind. Also, elaborate on each of these elements / questions. 1. What type of knowledge is being addressed? 1. Are there issues related to the Processes of Science that might be problematic for students? Why? If so, how would you address them? 1. What role did an understanding of cognitive stages have in the development of your lesson plan? 1. What types of scaffolding did you use? Why? 1. Discuss how you used the 5E Model to develop this lesson plan. Be specific and provide a rationale for each step. 1. Were there instances in which you chose to use a presentation instead of direct, hands-on experiences? If so, why did you choose to do so? (Note - you are NOT required to use a presentation in your lesson plan. Do so only if it makes sense to you.) 1. What types of questioning are included in your lesson plan? Provide a rationale. 1. What types of assessment are embedded in your lesson plan? What types were used in planning the lesson? What types of questions, if any, do you envision being used after the lesson plan has been "completed"? 1. These questions need not be answered in any specific order. You can answer them separately from the lesson plan, or embed them as notations in the lesson plan you submit. The format, as usual, is up to you. When you have completed your midterm, submit it as a word document. Hands-On Labs SM-1 Lab Manual 70 EXPERIMENT 8: Phenotype and Genotype Read the entire experiment and organize time, materials, and work space before beginning. Remember to review the safety sections and wear goggles when working with chemicals. Allow 40 to 60 minutes for this experiment Objectives: To understand phenotype and genotype, and To understand why you have certain characteristics Materials: Student Provides: Self Mirror From LabPaq: PTC taste paper Discussion and Review: Who you are is a product of both your physical nature and your nurturing or training. Genetics is the study of your nature. By looking at some of your physical features you can understand some of your genetics and why you have certain physical features. The study of genetics is one of the hottest areas of study in biology today. The recent completion of the genome project, combined with growing interest in cloning and gene replacement therapy, has generated great interest in genetics. In biology, genetics can be divided into classical genetics (heredity) and molecular genetics. Heredity is generally thought of as a study of parents and offspring and how their traits or characteristics are related. Two organisms can look alike but have different underlying gene combinations. The way an organism looks an ...
