Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 200

Students love using microscopes to see the microscopic living cells. This was a great project that helped students relate the process of mitosis and meiosis to the content that they need to learn in 7th grade. It was a great hands-on lab where students were able to be "real" scientists.

Original Grant Overview

Goal

The goal of this grant is to provide students with a hands on laboratory activity involving the topics of mitosis and meiosis.

What will be done with my students

Students will take control of the learning and study onion cells and other microscope slides to discover how the cells are reproduced through mitosis. They will be able to complete an in-depth laboratory experiment, collect data, and analyze their findings.

Benefits to my students

Students will be fully engaged in a hands on lab which makes the topic more approachable for all types of students. It will allow students to learn about the topics in a fun and exciting way and allow them to make real world connections. They will benefit from seeing these microscopic processes right in front of them.

Budget Narrative

The budget is for the onion mitosis lab kits and basic meiosis slides.
