**__Day 10: How do cells grow and divide? (continued) __**  __Focus Attention/Motivation: __  Students will answer question of the day in science journal. “What happens if a cell does not have a full set of chromosomes?” 5 minutes  Students will meet with clock partners. Each will bring his or her cut out, completed pages of the flip book. Their task is to mix up all of the pages and then put each book in proper order and staple. 15 minutes   __Instructional Input & Modeling __:  __Student Engagement/Practice: __  <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">LAB: Students will be working in cooperative groups of 2-3. They will be viewing unlabeled slides of the 5 different phases of mitosis under electron microscopes. Their task is to identify the correct phase. On their lab write up, they are to draw what they see. They are to then write a 3-4 sentence description of what occurs during the phase. <span style="color: red; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">35 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="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Microscopes <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Slides <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Lab write up <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Writing utensil <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;"> <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="color: black; font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Scott Foresman 6th grade science text <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Students experiencing difficulty will be given a lab write up that features identification and images of the different phases of mitosis. They will need to describe phase with words. Or reverse depending on student’s needs. <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;"> <span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman','serif'; font-size: 12pt;">Students experiencing proficiency will investigate slides in which there is an error in one of the phases of mitosis and research the resulting disorder.
