Ultimate Guide to Mitosis (graphic organizer, handout, study guide)
By Stephanie O.
Lay out clearly and concisely what you want your students to know about each phase of mitosis, using this handy chart.
This table maps out the exact breakdown I use with my tutoring students if they've been overwhelmed or stumped by their biology teacher's explanation.
What's included:
+ key events in prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase
+ vocabulary definitions
+ color-coding mnemonics to aid understanding (prophase and telophase mirror each other!)
+ BONUS: cytokinesis (and how it differs in animal cells vs plant cells)
Example uses:
+ add it to the end of your lecture notes as a recap
+ hand it out as a supplement to practice questions on identifying what stage of mitosis a cell is in based on a microscopy image or a sketch
+ provide it as a summary study guide for a unit test on mitosis
Suited for intro high school biology, AP Biology, IB Biology SL/HL, intro college biology, and MCAT.
