Teacher:AdrienneDiSipio Unit Title: Puberty

Lesson # 1 of 1. Title: Jeopardy
Grade level: 7 Duration of class: 45mins Number of students: approx. 25

A. Lesson Context
Rationale (relevance of lesson to unit): Students will be working together as a team to answer
questions about puberty/reproduction that they learned from watching a video and completing
their packets. Reviewing as a team allows students to feel more comfortable answering
questions because they can discuss with a smaller group and have another group member
present their
Anticipated difficulties and how they will be addressed: Students who do not know the
information well enough can use their group to help with the answer.
Resources, Equipment and Materials: computer, internet, projector, marker (for score keeping)
