Product Details

Ready to take learning essential science vocabulary from difficult and boring to accessible and fun? Increase the science literacy in your middle or high school classroom using our differentiated student-friendly reading passages that introduce vocabulary terms in a way that students can easily understand.

The passages are the same, but the questions are differentiated. Students that require scaffolding and support receive a modified passage where vocabulary terms are in bold and questions are simplified to matching or recall. Students requiring less support or more challenge receive an unmodified passage and questions requiring more depth of knowledge and rigor. Since the passages are the same, students don't even need to know that they are receiving work that is different from their peers.

This genetics vocabulary includes the following terms along with student-friendly explanations:

Heredity • Genetics • Chromosomes • Genes • Nucleus • DNA • Ribosomes • Proteins • Characteristics • Traits • Alleles • Dominant • Recessive • Genotype • Phenotype • Homozygous • Purebred • Heterozygous • Hybrid • Mitosis • Meiosis • Sperm • Egg

WHAT'S INCLUDED in this 1 DAY LESSON:

• NON-EDITABLE

→ PDF Differentiated Vocabulary Passages

→ PDF Differentiated Student Worksheets

→ Answer keys

STUDENTS WILL:

• Read the passage to learn about essential science vocabulary

• Complete the appropriate handouts according to skill level
