Intro to Cellular Respiration
Overview
A diagram of how mitochondria produces energy along with chloroplast.
Stage 1 - Desired Results
ESTABLISHED GOALS |
|
Transfer
Students will be able to independently use their learning to… |
|
Meaning
UNDERSTANDINGS | ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS |
| What is the role of oxygen in cellular respiration? What organelles contribute to cellular respiration? What is the role of water in cellular respiration? |
Aquistion
Students will know… | Students will be skilled at… |
The resources and products needed for cellular respiration. How to accurately describe the cycle. | Calculating the net energy gained from the cycle. Creating/a detail description of the cycle. |
Stage 2 - Assessment Evidence
Evaluative Criteria | Assessment Evidence |
| PERFORMANCE TASK(S): 1-2 formative assessments on the unit and 1 summative assessment on the unit.
|
| OTHER EVIDENCE: Possible extra credit being offered on the assessments along with optional case studies/other short assignments that require students to show a strong understanding of the material. |
Stage 3 - Learning Plan
Learning Activities:
Summary of Key Learning Events and Instruction
What learning experiences and instruction will enable students to achieve the desired results? How will the design
W = Help the students know Where the unit is going and What is expected? Help the teacher know Where the students are coming from (prior knowledge, interests)?
H = Hook all students, and Hold their interest?
E1 = Equip students, help them Experience the key ideas and Explore the issue?
R = Provide opportunities to Rethink and Revise their understandings and work?
E2 = Allow students to Evaluate their work and its implications?
T = be Tailored (personalized) to the different needs, interests, and abilities of learners?
O = Be Organized to maximize initial and sustained engagement as well as effective learning?
1. What is the importance of Cellular Respiration? (W,H)
- W-Presentation, this will help the students with a general sense of whats happening.
- H- Kahoot, to gauge what they know and to interest them.
- Begin the discussion with why respiration is important.
- Relate to photosynthesis.
- Explain what goes into respiration.
2. The organelles. (H)
- H- Online lab, to interest the students in the organelles.
- What organelles are important? Why?
- Online activity that goes through the organelles and the basic cycle.
3. The Aerobic cycle. (E1,T,O)
- E1- Presentation, a quick presentation to bring them up to speed.
- T- Microscopes, this will allow students to look at cells and indivdualize how they do it.
- O- Presentation, an organized approach to the topic.
- Describe the components of the aerobic cycle.
- What goes into the cycle?
- What is the process of the cycle?
4. The Anaerobic cycle. (E1, T, O)
- E1- Presentation, let the students know whats happening.
- T- Webquest, Lets the students take their time while learning and stay interested.
- O- Presentation for the sole purpose of organization.
- How does the Anaerobic cycle work?
- How is it different than the aerobic?
- Compare and contrast worksheet.
5. How does cellular respiration differ from photosynthesis? (E1, R, T)
- E1-Presentation, yet again a very short one.
- R- Blog, allows the students to think about what they learned.
- T- Podcast, allows the students to take it whatever direction they want.
- Question students about their knowledge of photosynthesis.
- A brief generalization of photosynthesis.
- Ven diagram created with the help of the students.
- Educate on any missing parts that students are struggling with.
