**__Day 9: How do cells grow and divide? __**   -The students will construct a flip book of the phases of mitosis. __Focus Attention/Motivation: __  Discussion of previous class lab conclusion. Iodine diffused into bag. 10 minutes  Ask- do you have fewer, more or the same amount of cells in your body as when you were younger? Thumbs up for more, down for fewer or side for same. Ask for explanation. MORE! Cells keep dividing as a living thing grows. Today, we’ll be talking about how cells grow and divide. 5 minutes  __Instructional Input & Modeling __:  Students will complete a KWL chart detailing:  <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">What they already know about cell division. What they want to know about cell division. Discuss. <span style="color: red; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">10 minutes <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Students will view PowerPoint detailing cell growth and division based on information from the text (pages 38-41). PowerPoint will include definitions of vocabulary concepts (mitosis, DNA, chromosomes), as well as detailed images of phases of cell growth and division. Teacher will go through slides and stop to discuss key concepts, definitions, etc. Students will record concepts, definitions, in science notebook. <span style="color: red; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">20 minutes <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Students will then watch 3 minute video on mitosis: <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7204725871954420481#docid=-7061264765331138726 <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> __<span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Student Engagement/Practice: __<span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">The students will create a Mitosis flip book. <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">They will be given a template that features a phase of mitosis with several pages of empty ovals for an illustration. Each oval will feature proper illustration and location of organelles at that particular stage. Upon completion of illustrations, each page will be cut out and stapled in the correct order THE FOLLOWING DAY in class. <span style="color: red; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">25 minutes <span style="color: red; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Those who do not finish, must bring home for homework and return to next class.
