F. Lesson plan
5 Setting the • To revise cell cycle. • Ask students the main stages of a cell PowerPoint
context cycle
• Ask students what the essential
difference is between meiosis and
mitosis.
10 Modelling and • To introduce the stages • teach students the key events in two PowerPoint
deconstruction and phases: stages of mitotic cell division “ice-bar stick”
– Nuclear division: paper
prophase, metaphase,
anaphase, telophase
– Cytoplasmic division
Language aspect applied:
prefixes
15 Guided • To explain the stages and • Guide students to demonstrate and PowerPoint
construction phases present the stages using “ice-bar stick” “ice-bar stick”
Language aspect applied: model in pairs Language aspect paper
Temporal explanations applied: Visual presentation.
• Ask students to explain the stages with
biological terms.
In the guiding phase, teacher will use
language such as:
– T: “What should I think of first when I
think about nuclear division?”
– SS: “There are four phases: the
prophase, metaphase, anaphase and
telophase – in that order.”
– T: “OK. And tell me what happens in
the prophase and, by the way, how do
I know it is the first phase – what in its
name tells me it is the first phase?"
– SS: " ... etc"
15 Independent • To identify the stages and • Ask students to identify them from PowerPoint
