Description
Take your students’ understanding of meiosis and other advanced topics to the next level
Using ChromoSock® specialty socks, you will focus on and address common misconceptions within meiosis. This lab walks the student through each stage of meiosis and provides instruction, support, and explanation, both in guided instruction and visually to ensure student understanding. Your class will then model the events of meiosis while focusing on Mendel’s laws, investigating the formation of gametes, fertilization, and the possible combination of alleles from fertilization. Included in this kit is a pre-lesson probe that aids in assessing the student’s mastery of meiosis content.
The teacher’s manual includes a thoroughly detailed guide on how to explain meiosis concepts to students. Instruction is supported by visual sock placement, movements, and description. In addition, this kit includes multiple extension activities to address telomeres, deletions, epigenetic changes, and more. The classroom kit is designed for 32 students working in pairs and includes 1-year access to digital resources that support 3-dimensional instruction.
