UNIT 5- Extending Genetics
Monday, November 5
Due: p.187 #4,5 p.195 #13,15,17,18,,20,22,25
Test on Mendel and Punnet Squares
Retest on Meiosis, if students received less than a B on the first test
Assignment: Articles- Pick one of the articles to read and follow the instructions to construct a response to your reading: take a sheet of paper and divide in half: On one side write “information you already knew about genetics.” On the other side write “information you learned from the article”. You need a combined 15 statements in both columns in response to the article. We will share these in class discussion.

Tuesday, November13
Objectives: Students understand that some traits are polygenic (depend on more than one gene) and can determine what phenotype individuals will have for certain polygenic traits.
Students also understand that environment plays an important role in how genes are expressed.
Lesson:
Notes/Discussion- What is a polygenic trait?
How does environment effect traits?
Activity-Variations on a Human Face- students will flip coins to determine genotype and then determine phenotype for various single allele and polygenic traits
Assignment: Complete Variations on a Human Face activity drawing and questions.
