What ideas did you learn this week?

This week in science class we started a new unit. Our new unit is reproduction. When we started we tried to answer questions to see what we knew. The question were, how do organism reproduce?, how do cells reproduce?, and how is sex different than reproduction? We talked about it in class as a group. Another thing we did this week was learn about mitosis. We learned about the four different parts; prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Then we drew what they looked like in our notebooks. We even got to look at onion root cells and talk more about the four different parts of mitosis.

How did you learn these ideas?

We learned these ideas mostly from class discussions because it was a new unit and we didn't know to much about it. Also, homework was helpful because we were able to learn about mitosis that way. Then we talked about it in class.

Why is it important to learn these ideas?

Its important to know about reproduction because in the future we will be talking about it again and we will know more about it and be more helpful. Also if it comes up on a test or quiz we can explain it clearly on what it is.
