Criteria Description Number of Points Earned

Points
1. Title of the project; - relevant and written neatly 2
name of the student/s - students’ names are written on the back of the paper 2
2. 9 stages: Meiosis 1 and -have 9 models: prophase 1, metaphase 1, anaphase 1, telophase 1, two daughter 9
Meiosis 2 cells, prophase 2, metaphase 2, anaphase 2, telophase 2, four daughter cells
- all models are labeled correctly and arranged in sequence
9
3. Sets of chromosomes - used 4 different colors of yarn to represent 4 sets of chromosomes 8
4. Prophase 1 -chromosomes duplicating 4
-paired chromatids with centromeres
5. metaphase 1 - homologous pairs of chromosomes line up across the center 4
-each chromosome is connected to a spindle at its centromere
6. anaphase 1 - homologous pairs of chromosomes separate and are moved apart 4
-spindle connected to each chromosome getting shorter
7. telephase 1 - chromosomes gather at opposite ends of the cell 4
- cell divides; cytokinesis
8. Prophase 2 -two haploid daughter cells; each daughter cell has half the number of 4 x 2 =8
chromosomes as the original cell

5. metaphase 2 - chromosomes line up across the equator (like metaphase stage of mitosis) 4 x 2 =8
-each chromosome is connected to a spindle at its centromere
6. anaphase 2 - sister chromatids separate an moved apart 4x2=8
- centromeres split
7. telephase 2 - chromosomes gather at opposite ends of the cell 4x2=8
- cell divides; cytokinesis
8. cytokineses - four daughter cells have formed; contain haploid number of chromosomes 4 x 4 = 16
9. Neatness - model is centered; captions and descriptions are clear and neatly written 6
