/ Standard / Goal / Access Prior Knowledge / New Information / Apply Knowledge / Generalize/ Goal Review/ Grade
Monday / Focus Standard:
S3 – Students know and understand the characteristics and structure of living things, the processes of life, and how living htings interact with each other and their environment. / Learn about the characteristics of DNA / Q/ What are blueprints? What are they used for?
A/ They are copies used as a guide to make or build something / Quick outline of DNA’s characteristics and its histrorical background. / DNA Extraction Lab
S. will extract their DNA from a check cell
Bring for Lab: 1 medium sized bottle of regular alcohol (no medicated or menthol alcohol)
1 small Gatorade
1 plastic cup per group
Lab Report due tomorrow / Describe what your DNA looked like as it was extracted from your check cell.

Thursday / Focus Standard:
S3 – Students know and understand the characteristics and structure of living things, the processes of life, and how living htings interact with each other and their environment. / Learn about gene expression, transcription, and translation / Q? Who can identify at least 3 ways in which RNA differs from DNA?

HW: SR 3 pg 310
Students will complete the DNA Mutation Activity / Exit Slip
How do codons and anticodons differ?
A/ Codons are the triplet sequences in the mRNA, which specifies a corresponding aminoacid. Anticodons are the corresponding triplet sequences on the tRNA that specifies for a corresponding aa to the ribosome.
