Chromosome Poster/Power Point Presentation

Part of Lesson Plan: Chromosomes and the Human Genome - Olson

Activity Overview / Details

I have students present their projects in one of two ways.  The first is a short 5 minute presentation. During this time students should be taking notes on a pre-made chart (see attached).  Or I have the students set up for a gallery walk.  Gallery walks work much better with posters.  In the gallery walk, have students set up their projects and then allow half the class to walk around to see the other projects. Either way, the students must verbally present their information and the rest of the class must record the information.
