The Genetic Basis of Neurological Disorders
Students explore neurological disorders. They examine the presence and absence of discernible genes. Students describe neruological diseases and draw faces of affected persons. They play a human neurology disorders learning game.
Curated OER
Frankenfish
Students learn the difference between a genotype and a phenotype. They demonstrate that recombination of gametes (coins) will result in the formation of unique individuals.

Nature vs. Nurture
Eighth graders investigate the concept of nature versus nurture in human development through this series of lessons.
Curated OER
Marshmallow Babies
Eighth graders interpret the genotypes and phenotypes, then pair up chromosomes.
Curated OER
Who Are We? An Introduction to the Life Within Our Bodies
Students examine cell structure, cell division, and the basic structure of DNA. They read and discuss a case study of DNA research, answer discussion questions, role-play the process of mitosis, and complete a DNA Fact or Fiction worksheet.
Curated OER
Peter Rabbit Meets Charles Darwin
Ninth graders explore evolution. They study a cartoon scenario of a rabbit population in which there is selection and a change of gene frequency. Students discuss frequencies, evolution, and speciation.
Curated OER
Hardy-Weinberg Made Easy: A Seventh Way
The purpose of this lesson is to slowly introduce the Hardy-Weinberg Law and population genetics to your students after you have completed Mendelian genetics. Using this format, you ease the students into the concept by relying on the...
Curated OER
Natural Selection And Evolution
Seventh graders investigate the concept of natural selection and its relationship to the theory of evolution. They conduct research using a variety of resources and use the information to create a class presentation and open up the...
Curated OER
Making Babies
Students participate in a genetics activity in which they determine genotypes and phenotypes for given traits. They work with a partner and create babies based on their genotypes. Once traits for babies are determined, they write...
Curated OER
Modeling a Gene Pool
In this genetic worksheet, learners examine how gene frequency changes in a population of organisms. After completing 5 pre-lab questions, they work in pairs to collect data and answer 5 additional post-lab questions.
Curated OER
Sex-Linked Genes and Disorders
In this genes instructional activity, students determine how the gender of a baby is produced plus explore sex-linked disorders such as hemophilia. This instructional activity has 20 fill in the blank and 8 short answer questions.
Curated OER
Traits
Sixth graders consider heredity. In this science lesson plan, 6th graders gain an understanding of certain physical traits are inherited from their parents through the genes.
Curated OER
Making Babies
Sixth graders complete a human traits survey. In this genetics lesson plan students read articles and fill out a worksheet on genotype and phenotypes.
Curated OER
Inheritance Word Search Puzzle
In this literacy worksheet, students find the words that are related to the concept that is the theme of the word search puzzle.
Curated OER
The Genetic Basis of Neurological Disorders
Young scholars describe some aspects of known genetic defects on the human neurological condition. They participate in a variety of exercises including drawings, games, and analogies.
Curated OER
Genetics: Punnett Squares
Students examine Punnett squares charts and analyze how they are used for successful breeding and predictions of certain traits. They complete interactive Punnett square charts, quizzes, problems, and concentration games.
Curated OER
Karyotypes & Chromosome Inheritance
Students study Mendelian genetic terms, locate and name loci on chromosomes, karyotype construction, inheritance patterns through families.
Curated OER
Create-A-Kid
Students flip a pair of coins to determine what genotype and what phenotype their child have for 29 given traits. They draw a picture of their kid based on their coin flip phenotypes.
Curated OER
Human Inheritance
Students analyze genetic characteristics in a given family tree through the F2 generation. Students apply prior knowledge from Gregor Mendel's study with pea plants and his Laws of Heredity to answer questions.
