Looking for a new way to teach your students the stages of mitosis this year? We’ve partnered with our friends at Ward’s Science to create a hands-on lesson that covers everything your students need to know. As they complete their own flip-book, they’ll not only get the information they need, but they’ll end up with a learning tool perfect for reinforcing and reviewing the key concepts and terms.
This lesson helps students understand how cells grow, repair, and reproduce—key processes that sustain life. It connects to important topics like genetics and biology, giving students a deeper appreciation for living organisms while building a foundation for more advanced science concepts. The activity also perfectly aligns with the Next Generation Science Standards, specifically HS-LS1-4: “Use a model to illustrate the role of cellular division (mitosis) and differentiation in producing and maintaining complex organisms.”
