Item description

Cell Division consists of five handy printable black-and-white Student Worksheets (PLUS Answer Sheets) that will not just save you valuable prep time but will really help your students to improve their understanding of processes like binary fission, mitosis, meiosis and the cell cycle. Suitable for students in years 10 – 12, Cell Division can easily be used as class work, homework, revision or even tests.

Cell Division: mitosis, meiosis & binary fission covers:

• stages of the cell cycle: (i) Mitosis and Cytokinesis (M phase) and (ii) Gap 1, Synthesis and Gap 2 (Interphase)

• reproduction in prokaryotic organisms: binary fission

• stages of mitosis

• stages of meiosis: first and second divisions

Along with printable worksheets, a digital (PowerPoint) version of Cell Division is included here at no extra cost, giving teachers a choice as to which they prefer to use – taking into account the different learning styles of their students.

Cell Division is not just about answering questions. Your students will enjoy the ‘active’ nature of the tasks here, including:

• analyzing diagrams

• labeling/adding features to diagrams

• completing ‘fill-in-the-gaps’ passages

• drawing diagrams

• color-coding

• conducting Internet research

• completing drag-and-drop activities (digital version)

• adding features to diagrams by inserting and formatting shapes (digital version)

Cell Division includes an Answer Key (PDF) with images in full color that look great on the big screen and can be used to facilitate good class discussion. Answers provided are also highly detailed, so there is no need to research or fact-check here; it’s all been done for you!

I hope you and your students find this product useful and that you enjoy using it as much as I enjoyed creating it!
